True or not, it does bring up an issue I hadn't considered, that Russia is quoting low casualty numbers (in part) because they simply have no idea how many of their own soldiers have died.<p>When a patrol or convoy simply disappears (from their perspective) in the middle of a field in Ukraine, are they actually organized enough to recognize the loss? Or is it simply a phantom platoon somewhere in the books that it will take weeks to figure out is missing.
