0011292: Cannot order squad to attack or move after returning from mission if squad has fewer members than it had when it was sent
Affected save: http://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=14714 [^]

After sending five of my military squads (swords, crossbows, axes, spears, hammers) out on a military mission to raze a goblin tree city, there are a couple errors.
1. the numbers listed are not accurate in the "s" squad screen. The numbers listed are 9, 9, 10, 10, and 10, when in actuality the squads only contain 8,7,10,10, and 9 dwarves, meaning squads 1, 2, and 5 are off. Incidentally, these are the three squads that I cannot station or order to attack.

The squads affected in the save are "Axedwarves", "Speardwarves", and "Hammerdwarves".

Interesting, completely filling the squads fixes the issue, but the issue does not resolve itself before you do so.
I would assume that sending a number of squads out on a mission where you were guaranteed to lose dwarves ought to have the same thing happen.
Wasn't sure whether to categorize this as either "Dwarf Mode: Missions" or "Dwarf Mode: Interface, Squad Control", so I went with the latter.
No tags attached.

Forgot the version number: 47.01. Could someone update that?
