I find it quite astounding that nearly all authours, especially American, misuse: Decimate.

Decimate comes from the Roman Army doctrine of killing one-in-ten legionaries from any legion which suffers a defeat.
DECEM: Latin for ten.

These authours obviously have little knowledge of etymology or history.

In this example over half of the army are killed. One-in-two.

Annihilated: Used when a military unit is completely ruined or loses its operational effectiveness, often applied when half or more are lost.

DECIMATE vs ANNIHILATE - US authours please note!
