Ooh, I love non-linear and alternating POV fics.

Hmm, I guess that while I do love research and historical accuracy, I don't know how much is REALLY needed for fic. It's great when it's there but unless there's some wildly wrong fact like suddenly Eddie and Andy are fighting in Antarctica, I probably won't notice. I'm usually too focused on the characters to notice if a fic says that a battle lasted two days when it really lasted three, or whatever.

Either way I am so looking forward to your fic!

It's mostly a matter of grounding, for me. It's easier for me to get into a character if I know where they're coming from, and details often help with that. Not so much how long a battle lasted, but how something tasted or felt, what people were saying.

Anyway, forward.
