    "Doss grew up in Lynchburg, Va., the middle child of William Doss, a carpenter, and Bertha Doss. From a young age, he was captivated by a framed poster of the Ten Commandments, and in particular the illustration that accompanied the Sixth Commandment: a drawing of Cain killing his brother Abel. Though his father, a World War I veteran, was often drunk and depressed, his mother was a woman of strong faith who regularly took her children to church. A scene in the movie in which Desmond takes a gun from his father during a fight between his parents is a variation on a similar event in Doss’ life. In reality, it was a fight between Doss’ father and uncle that prompted the boy to vow never to touch a gun again."

    This is one of those times the truth is actually stranger then the movie. Everything in the movie? It happened right up until he was loaded onto the stretcher and was goin home. He gave up his spot on the stretcher for another wounded. Fought for like 2 more days. Had his right arm shattered. And still he was saving lives. You know your a badass when Hollywood actually has to tone down your achievements to make it believeable

    Three rules of a combat medic
    1. Good men will die
    2. Doc can't save everyone
    3. Doc will go thru hell to break rules 1 & 2
    Desmond Doss is the embodiment of this creed. This man earned his place among great warriors and great men of history without ever taking a life. Hero in every sense of the word.

      @@ryanking2936 I heard a story once and I have no way to corroborate it, but I believe it.
      After WWII ended with the Japanese armistice, many of the transports that had been forming up to carry troops to invade Japan turned around. There wasn't a need for them so they went home. Some to the West Coast, other to Hawaii. I do not know the name of the man, a Navy corpsman, I just heard him called Doc, but he got off the transport in Oahu and immediately went looking for something decent to drink. He walked into the first bar that he found and was told by the bartender 'We don't serve redskins here, get out!' He was Native American enough to be noticed and the bartender took offense. Odd in Oahu, but somewhat understandable after Pearl Harbor since he did have darker skin than most. He was in uniform and asked politely to get a beer to go. The bartender had him thrown out and he did not resist because that would have only made things worse.
      As Doc dusted himself off, a squad of Marines from the same transport that he had been on came around the corner and found him sitting on the sidewalk. They picked him up, checked him over and asked what happened. When he explained, the NCO leading the group got very quiet and then just nodded to all the others. They walked into the bar and the NCO said 'Wait here.' before following them. The marines did not speak to the bartender or anyone else. They yanked the tap right out of the bar, carried it out to the sidewalk and poured Doc a drink right there.
      They got in trouble for it, of course and when the squad and Doc were called into the Marine base commander's office, they explained. When they did, the Colonel shook his head, said 'Semper Fi', charged them $1 each for the breakage and them smiled and said he might have done the same if he saw a corpsman in such straits.
      Considering that "Doc' had tended those men and MANY like them on Iwo Jima, that bartender was very lucky it wasn't FAR worse.

    MEDAL OF HONOR CITATION
    “He was a company aidman when the 1st Battalion assaulted a jagged escarpment 400 feet high. As our troops gained the summit, a heavy concentration of artillery, mortar, and machine-gun fire crashed into them, inflicting approximately 75 casualties and driving the others back. Pfc. Doss refused to seek cover and remained in the fire-swept area with the many stricken, carrying them one by one to the edge of the escarpment and there lowering them on a rope-supported litter down the face of a cliff to friendly hands. On 2 May, he exposed himself to heavy rifle and mortar fire in rescuing a wounded man 200 yards forward of the lines on the same escarpment; and two days later he treated four men who had been cut down while assaulting a strongly defended cave, advancing through a shower of grenades to within eight yards of enemy forces in a cave's mouth, where he dressed his comrades' wounds before making four separate trips under fire to evacuate them to safety. On 5 May, he unhesitatingly braved enemy shelling and small-arms fire to assist an artillery officer. He applied bandages, moved his patient to a spot that offered protection from small-arms fire, and, while artillery and mortar shells fell close by, painstakingly administered plasma. Later that day, when an American was severely wounded by fire from a cave, Pfc. Doss crawled to him where he had fallen 25 feet from the enemy position, rendered aid, and carried him 100 yards to safety while continually exposed to enemy fire.
    On 21 May, in a night attack on high ground near Shuri, he remained in exposed territory while the rest of his company took cover, fearlessly risking the chance that he would be mistaken for an infiltrating Japanese and giving aid to the injured until he was himself seriously wounded in the legs by the explosion of a grenade. Rather than call another aidman from cover, he cared for his own injuries and waited five hours before litter bearers reached him and started carrying him to cover. The trio was caught in an enemy tank attack and Pfc. Doss, seeing a more critically wounded man nearby, crawled off the litter and directed the bearers to give their first attention to the other man. Awaiting the litter bearers' return, he was again struck, this time suffering a compound fracture of one arm. With magnificent fortitude he bound a rifle stock to his shattered arm as a splint and then crawled 300 yards over rough terrain to the aid station. Through his outstanding bravery and unflinching determination in the face of desperately dangerous conditions Pfc. Doss saved the lives of many soldiers. His name became a symbol throughout the 77th Infantry Division for outstanding gallantry far above and beyond the call of duty.”

      There's a theory that many men in the Army Air Corps developed, the idea of the Golden bullet. With everything out there dedicating itself to shooting you down, eventually your time will come, and fretting over it won't do you any good - because when it's your time there's nothing you can do about it. This makes it all the more impactful when the man who didn't bring a gun braved such harrowing odds and yet none of those bullets were golden for him.
      Americans are just built different. Get us going on something, truly dedicating our soul to it, and the only people that can stop us are other Americans. Otherwise it's just a matter of time, we'll get it done eventually, or we'll die trying.

    He wasnt trying to be famous, he wasnt trying to set any records, he wasnt trying to win awards , he wasnt trying to be the best solider. He WAS trying to be the best human, the best humanitarian, and the best beacon of light to others while being surrounded by death, darkness, destruction, exhaustion, and some of the most hard situations that even in our dreams would haunt us let alone reality. As a prior military member myself i thank him for showing all of us and also civilians what it means to be selfless, how to serve with honor and care for others around us, and most importantly to do it not for the fame or the awards or the recognition, BUT because its the right thing and the most honorable thing to do. May his legacy live on and inspire those of us who might need alittle light in a dark world :-) Semper FI Doc.

    There was another like Doss in World War 1. Capt. Noel Godfrey Chavasse served in the Royal Army Medical Corps.
    His first Victoria Cross citation reads:
    For most conspicuous bravery and devotion to duty. During an attack he tended the wounded in the open all day, under heavy fire, frequently in view of the enemy. During the ensuing night he searched for wounded on the ground in front of the enemy's lines for four hours. Next day he took one stretcher-bearer to the advanced trenches, and under heavy shell fire carried an urgent case for 500 yards into safety, being wounded in the side by a shell splinter during the journey. The same night he took up a party of twenty volunteers, rescued three wounded men from a shell hole twenty-five yards from the enemy's trench, buried the bodies of two officers, and collected many identity discs, although fired on by bombs and machine guns. Altogether he saved the lives of some twenty badly wounded men, besides the ordinary cases which passed through his hands. His courage and self-sacrifice, were beyond praise.
    His second Victoria Cross citation reads:
    For most conspicuous bravery and devotion to duty when in action. Though severely wounded early in the action whilst carrying a wounded soldier to the Dressing Station, Capt. Chavasse refused to leave his post, and for two days not only continued to perform his duties, but in addition went out repeatedly under heavy fire to search for and attend to the wounded who were lying out. During these searches, although practically without food during this period, worn with fatigue and faint with his wound, he assisted to carry in a number of badly wounded men, over heavy and difficult ground. By his extraordinary energy and inspiring example, he was instrumental in rescuing many wounded who would have otherwise undoubtedly succumbed under the bad weather conditions. This devoted and gallant officer subsequently died of his wounds.
    He died in August 1917. He is the only recipient to receive two Victoria Crosses for actions in World War I.

      @Sergio Barrett I read somewhere a little while back that the directors and writers had to ignore and exclude some of the things he did for fear the audience would not believe it actually happened. They thought some of actions would seem to far fetched and film drama to be believed.
      The main one was after he copped shrapnel to the leg, as he was being stretchered back he saw a wounded soldier, got off the stretcher to patch him and gave up his stretcher for that soldier. While waiting for help to return he was shot by a sniper that shattered his arm. He eventually crawled back to safety through the battle.

      There is an exit ramp ace. His name is Jesus Christ. He is the foundation that Doss built his life and service on. Not religion, but a personal relationship with God available to you through Holy Spirit. Read the Gospels and Acts and ask him to show you his Truth and Love through it. Then find others who have been found by his amazing Love to help you understand and get on the better path.

I'd watch them over the years with him but I totally shocked him before Hacksaw Ridge came out, saying I wanted to see it on the big screen. It was my birthday present that year. I took plenty of tissues. It was a heartbreaking and heartwarming movie. My grandfather and father served in WWII, my brothers in Vietnam era, my brother in-law and stepbrothers in Serbia , desert storm etc. I ve a greatniece serving in the Navy as her father did.

Calling Desmond Doss a hero doesn't even remotely do his name justice. He is the definition of a hero. A guardian angel for all of the men he saved in the line of battle. I have never grown more respect for a man than I have for Desmond Doss. I envy everyone that has ever had the honor to shake his hand. This film is a masterpiece and I believe everyone should take the time to enjoy it.
