I was attacking a target. I didnt know them. turns out azzer was about to delete them. Any way. they got deleted i dont know when but inbetween me sending and the attacking for 3 tick. as i went to defend a different target I noticed I had some extra men home.
Turns out the guy had just been deleted and my men auto returned (i assume)

Sat 4th Sep, year 1. Afternoon Outgoing Hostiles
You sent 12,025,000 employees to attack [Player deleted from game], they are set to arrive in 5 ticks

so Then at some random point there was a deletion of the id. But there was no news.
although it is very rare I would like to suggest that it would be beneficial to get some sort of news or msg to inform you your mob is now home and no longer attacking the target which is no longer in existance.

that is my suggestion. Just something along the lines of

"[NEWS]
Sun 5th Sep, year 1. Noon: A giant flash of ligh has been seen in the distance, a greater force has removed one of our enemies from existance, all that remains is a pit of smoldering ash. Bewildered and confused your men have returned home still ready for battle."

Lol, I've never had that happen to me before, but it sounds logical and easy enough to put in place :)

Yeah that has happened to me before and caused me great confusion... took a few minutes before I actually realised what happened... its no biggie but I agree with the suggestion.

I like the idea, and even the wording of, that news story. I'll use my reply here as a marker/reminder for this one ;)
