Other things need to be accepeted. Don't make it just the full name that is acceptable, but also what most people call it. For example, most people call the Battle of Okinawa simply "Okinawa" or invasion of soviet union instead of operation barbarossa.

I agree. People shouldn't have to type "battle of" and such things.

Also, if your going to call it "deadliest battles" than you should really just use actual battle. Either rename it or remove the bombing campaigns.

I agree with everything that has been said, also Invasion of France should be accepted. Also, didnt teh fire bombing of Tokyo lead to about 1,000,000 casualties?

Agreed - Tokyo needs to be on here and other answers need to be accepted. I tried "Barbarossa" about a hundred times...

The Battle of the Atlantic should be included and please get those answers changed so one word answers like 'Kursk' and 'Moscow' count.
