it would be interesting to see the worst losses in a 1 day battle. I seem to remember reading about some horrible losses to the US Marines at the Chosin Reservoir battles.

The Battle of Antietam is the bloodiest day in United States history. In that battle, some 22,700 Americans fell killed and wounded in roughly 13 hours of combat.
Compare that, however, to the bloodiest day of the Napoleonic Wars: the September 7, 1812 engagement between the French and Russian empires at the Battle of Borodino. Some 85,000 men were casualties of war on that day.
