It would have to be a significant or very skillfully deployed force to have whittled the 8th ID down to 1000 effectives.

The write up for them suggests they were heavily disintegrating on their own and scattering stragglers all over the place as they moved, so their attrition is likely mostly not from combat. At least not directly. (And as written makes me wonder if someone at GDW or one of their friends was not running a campaign based on 8th ID(M) that got worked into the canonical T2k universe -- the whole thing about "one platoon even made it to Finland!" seems kind of odd . . .)
