Derail:
Worst to get wounded: Civil War. Those big bullets meant a near certain amputation if you lived. Second, I'm going with WWII Pacific Theater. You're shot up in a soupy humid cesspool or you're baking on a desert island.
Ferocity of the fight: (fighting men only) First is easily Pacific Theater. Second is probably going to also be WWII, Eastern Front, Stalingrad.
Truest "Meat Grinder": to me it's got to be WWI here. 110 total casualties combined for both sides in a DAY. That's just so hard to fathom.
Worst overall living conditions: WWI in the trenches. Second is the Civil War. I'm not sure there's much difference between the two.
