Something is wrong. Stocks have not moved at all today and I'm not sure why. I'm not a conspiracy theorist or anything but they haven't moved an inch...

it wasn't the not knowing the meaning of the word part, that was just ignorance, easily fixable. It's this part that made it self pwnage.

Casualty doesn't mean dead specifically. Someone classified as a casualty can be either dead or wounded. Military casualty counts are a combination of both the dead and the wounded.

just to chime in, in WW2 nearly everyone was a "casualty" , almost all front line servicemen had either been shot once or had some type of shrapnel wound. To make it out with no scratches at all was a rarity.
