The Battle of Gettysburg, fought from July 1 to July 3, 1863, is often regarded as the turning point of the Civil War due to its significant impact on Confederate morale and strategy. The battle resulted in approximately 51,000 soldiers being killed, wounded, missing, or captured, making it one of the bloodiest battles in American history. This staggering casualty count underscored the high human cost of the conflict and marked a pivotal moment in the Union's favor.
The Battle of Roundaway Down, which took place during the American Civil War, resulted in approximately 1,200 casualties, including both killed and wounded soldiers.

The exact number of soldiers killed or injured in Afghanistan varies depending on the time frame and the specific military forces being referenced. From 2001 to 2021, thousands of coalition soldiers, including U.S. and NATO troops, were killed, with tens of thousands more injured. The U.S. Department of Defense reported over 2,400 American military fatalities and more than 20,000 injuries during this period. Other countries also suffered losses, contributing to a total military casualty count that reflects the conflict's extensive human cost.
