Targan is right. 200% casualties is like in Saving Private Ryan, the Captain told his Top that he had lost something like 92 men under his command. That's close to 100% casualties for a company -- yet I'll bet he hit Omaha with a 100%-strength company. He got replacements over time for those troops he lost.
