For a more in-depth look at the method behind the numbers, read the Methodology page.

Numbers in black are taken straight from primary and secondary sources.
Numbers in red are an estimate based on an equation.
Numbers in blue are a best guess, but still derived from logical methods.  For this day, reported casualties have been subtracted from known strengths on the 19th, which still may not account for stragglers, those relieved during sick call, or unreported detachments.
