I'm going to say Stalingrad, WWII.
1.5 Million casualties.

Biggest battle in terms of casualties or in terms of soldiers? Or what else?
I'd say the battle of midway was a pretty big battle, a couple huge as$ destroyers and aircraft carriers pounding the s hit out of each other would be a site to see.

The Battle for Stalingrad was the largest battle of all time, whilst the battle of Kursk was the largest tank battle of all time.
The D-Day landings were a sequence of skirmishes and battles.

The "Battle of The Sexes". It began well over a million years ago, will continue forever, keeps growing in participant numbers, and will never have a declaired winner.

Id say operation overlord--the codename for the liberation project of France
Otherwise id probably go back to the invasion of Athens by Sparta

The fate of the world was decided on the banks of the Volga in the winter of '42, so i'd have to agree with people above....put my vote down for Stalingrad.

I think two answers before this say Stalingrad, and I agree. It think its amazing that Leningrad, about a year before Stalingrad, had about 1.5m casualties as well. Total for both, over almost four years, was over 3m+ wounded.
