The Battle of Philippi formed part of the Western Virginia Campaign of the American Civil War and was fought in and around Philippi, Virginia (now West Virginia), on June 3, 1861. A Union Army victory, it was the first organized land action of the war but is generally viewed as a skirmish rather than a battle. The Northern press, however, celebrated it as an epic triumph, which encouraged Congress to call for the drive on Richmond that ended with the Union defeat at First Bull Run in July. It brought overnight fame to Maj. Gen. George B. McClellan and was notable for the first battlefield amputations.

The Luftwaffe was ordered to destroy the French Air Forces and support to the German Army. The Germans committed five Air Corps to the attack, comprising 1,100 aircraft. The operation was launched on 3 June 1940.

The partition of India in 1947 was the division of British India into two independent dominion states, the Union of India and Dominion of Pakistan. The Union of India is today the Republic of India, and the Dominion of Pakistan is the Islamic Republic of Pakistan and the People's Republic of Bangladesh. The partition involved the division of two provinces, Bengal and the Punjab, based on district-wide non-Muslim (mostly Hindu and Sikh) or Muslim majorities.

The 1950 French Annapurna expedition, led by Maurice Herzog, reached the summit of Annapurna I at 8,091 metres (26,545 ft), the highest peak in the Annapurna Massif.

James McDivitt and Ed White launched aboard Gemini 4 from Cape Kennedy, Florida, beginning a four-day mission in Earth orbit. Later that day, White left the capsule while attached by a tether, becoming the first American to walk in space. The crew completed 66 orbits and carried out scientific experiments, extending American experience with longer human spaceflights. McDivitt also attempted to approach the spent upper stage of their launch vehicle, but the attempted rendezvous was unsuccessful. The flight helped NASA develop techniques and operational experience for later Gemini missions and the Apollo programme. The mission returned to Earth on June 7.

General elections were held in Italy on June 3, 1979. This election was called just a week before the European vote: the lack of matching between the two elections caused much controversy for wasting public money. Terroristic attacks by the Red Brigades caused a result which was quite opposite than three years before: for the first time the Italian Communist Party lost a lot of votes, delaying that government change that was seeming imminent in 1976, and the Communist defeat gave a new strength to all the minor parties, a concentration of vote on the Christian Democracy seeming less urgent to stop the red progress.

The cause of the derailment was a single fatigue crack in one wheel, which caused a part of the wheel to become caught in a railroad switch (points), changing the direction of the switch as the train passed over it.
