Question about Division numbers (Why so low?) and Casualty Totals

[monkspider]

I have always been under the impression that a division represented around 10,000 people but in the game divisions seem to have considerably less then that, even allowing for multiple people operating the vehicles. Were there really that many people involved in logistics and the like? Or are the missing troops held in reserve somewhere? I guess I am trying to wrap my brain around what each division in Panzer Campaigns represents.

With this in mind, in "real" battles should the projected casualty totals on the victory status screen be multiplied by a factor of two or more to represent the true amount of casualties?

Thanks again for helping out this newbie!
