Other deaths include non-war related things like heart attacks, etc. Nontheater means deaths of service members while a war was going on, but the person was assigned to duty in an area other than the war zone. During the Vietnam War, that might have been military deaths for various causes including accidents in Korea, Germany, Italy and the United States.
