Elsewhere That Day — 1970 on two tracks

Elsewhere
that day

The book runs on two rails. On the left, the war-story track: what a platoon in Quang Ngai province did that day, drawn from fifty letters home and the 4th/3rd's own daily logs. On the right, the history track — the chapters that open with those three words — and everything that was happening 8,000 miles away on the very same date.

SPOILERS

The In Vietnam column summarizes full chapters from the book: deaths, wounds, decisions and endings. If you have not read it yet, use the Elsewhere That Day filter to read the history track on its own.
