Commonly thought to be so, but I believe it to be confused with the more accurate estimate that at Antietam occurred the bloodiest SINGLE DAY of battle in American history.

It's the single bloodiest day in US military history.

September 17, 1862. It shares a date with another American, well Allied disaster that would happen some eighty odd years later on the same date.

September 17, 1944. The disaster at Arnhem, Operation Market Garden during WW2.
