    Fun fact: Andrew Garfield is about 5'10 and over 160 to 165 pounds.
    The real Desmond Doss was rumored to have never broke 145 pounds and was about 5'5 tall.
    So you have to picture someone shorter and smaller built than Andrew carrying all those men over distances that equaled football fields. He truly was one of the bravest and a miracle man.

    A few minor points. This was Desmond's third campaign. He had already been awarded a bronze medal with "V" (valor) device for Guam and the same for the Philippines. They did find his bible, but it was after Hacksaw Ridge. Desmond had already left the island by then. His men searched for it after they had already been relieved and could have left. It was given back to him by Capt. Glover at the White House.

    I was a US Navy Hospital Corpsman, counterpart to Doss' Army Medic. His story was well known to me. Few things to point out, by the time they were in Okinawa, Doss had already proven himself to his men. Decorated for bravery twice for his actions in the Philippines and on Guam. The escarpment that is the Hacksaw Ridge is 400 feet tall. Doss' battle was 5-6 DAYS not seemingly overnight as depicted. Doss himself believed he rescued no more than 25 men. Brass wanted to say 100. They compromised on 75. After the war, battalion records show 140-150 men saved by Doss.
    Many many years later when I was stationed in Okinawa, I stood on Hacksaw. It is now a Peace Park dedicated to Doss. The importance of that moment still gives me chills. As for the Japanese side. Interviews with soldiers reported seeing Doss. They also reported that when they shot at him either their weapon jammed or they missed completely.

      When Doss got hurt. When he was being carried to Safety he saw a even more hurt Soldier than him. He than told the Stretcher bears to take the other guy. As he was tending to the other soldier he got shot in the arm. He than to a rifle stock and made a spoint out of it and than crowd 300 yards to aid station. Also he Carried most of his soldier not drag them. Now keep in mind Doss was only 5ft 4" tall. He about 130 lbs I believe. There was many times that Japanese would go to shoot Doss and the gun would jamed up or the bullets wold go around Doss and than Continue on the same path. Now keep in mind Bullets do not jut recorrect around someone or something with out something makeing it do so. That is the power of God to make the bullets that was headed for Doss to go around him and continue going in the same path. This shows God is Protects his people who are faithful to him. Yes Doss did get shot yes he did get Injured at war. God did keep him alive so Doss could be Instrument for God's Kingdom to help safe more for the Kingdom of Heaven. God bless

    The amazing part is Mel Gibson watered-down down Doss's heroics. After being wounded. Doss's Litter crew fell under heavy fire. Forcing the crewmen to take cover. While taking cover Doss saw a wounded soldier out in the open. Doss rolled off his stretcher, and drug himself to the wounded soldier. Doss quickly started tending to the soldier's wounds. When asked why Gibson chose to leave this out. Gibson said "The audience would think that it's all just Hollywood fantasy"

    good reaction, ladies. I've got good news. God is good because He gives His blessings to everyone, good or bad. but everyone has at least, told a lie, or stolen something in their life. and that makes them sinners, and God cannot stand one iota of sin in His presence, because He is holy. so God has to punish the sinners in hell, because God is just. but God is also love and He made a way for some to be saved from His wrath. here are the steps:
    1. admit that you're a sinner and are lost.
    2. realize that the penalty of sin is death (hell).
    3. believe that Jesus (who is God in the flesh) died on the cross, was buried, then rose from the grave, to pay the penalty for man's past, present, and future sins.
    4. trust Christ alone as your Savior, and not on your own good deeds to get you to heaven
    (nor a combination of faith and your self-righteous works).
    5. pray to God NOW that you're following these steps because if you die before making this decision, it's too late.

    There is one thing the movie got wrong the men under Desmond's care already knew he wasn't a coward as he had already been awarded two Bronze stars with "V" device for valor under fire months before Hacksaw. He also did a lot of stuff not shown in the movie but listed in his MoH citation.
    Desmond Doss 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 riflejpp 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.”
    Look up "Desmond Doss This is Your Life" here on YT to meet Desmond his family and some of the men her saved. Above all you get to see how truly humble he was.

He told me how he patched himself up on a battlefield with mud leaves torn t-shirt and first aid bandage. He said he wasn't going to lay there, and get picked up by Japanese, while waiting for a medic. He kept fighting until the battle was over, then pulled himself to the aid station. He told me a few stories of japanese brutality. A real ww2 hero, but he hated the Japanese for a very long time.

    As bad as the battle scenes were. The real thing was a million times worse. Add in all the loud real sounds, the heat, grueling humidity, the stench of well, everything. The island of Okinawa is the largest in the chain of islands known as the Ryukyus, which lie to the southwest of Japan. Taking Okinawa would provide Allied forces an airbase from which bombers could strike Japan and an advanced anchorage for Allied fleets. From Okinawa, US forces could increase air strikes against Japan and blockade important logistical routes, denying the home islands of vital commodities. Code named Operation Iceberg, the invasion of Okinawa and other islands in the Ryukyus began on April 1, 1945. Although the joint Army-Marine Corps landings on Okinawa were initially unopposed, the well dug-in Japanese defenders soon put-up fierce resistance.
    The battle for Okinawa drug out over nearly three months and included some of the worst kamikaze attacks of the war. By the time Okinawa was secured by American forces on June 22, 1945, the United States had sustained over 49,000 casualties including more than 12,500 men killed or missing. Okinawans caught in the fighting suffered greatly, with an estimate as high as 150,000 civilians killed. Of the Japanese defending the island, an estimated 110,000 died. Some of the most well-known stories from the long fight include the heroics of conscientious objector Private Desmond Doss and the death of Ernie Pyle of Ie Shima. Twenty-four American military personnel we awarded the Medal of Honor for going above and beyond the call of duty. In American hands, the island provided a vital airfield in the final drive on Japan, as the Allies finally brought about Japanese surrender less than three months later.
    I was stationed in Sasebo Japan. on the amphib side. Every deployment we went to pick up Marines and all their gear. I went to the actual Hacksaw Ridge. The battle was so heavy and intense there still major signs of it everywhere. That was in the mid 90's my son was there recently with the Navy just last year. He says it's still very obvious. That ridge was around 400 ft high. Imagine climbing that under those horrific conditions. Then trying to get back down before being killed. After learning more about it. I am amazed anyone survived that slaughter.

    God bless Desmond Doss and his family! God bless all the courageous veterans with nerves of steel who risked everything and sacrificed so much to protect our countries and preserve the freedoms we enjoy today! God bless all the souls - military and civilian - that we have lost in times of war! God bless America! God bless us all and grant us peace!

    It's a shame what happened to Mel Gibson's career because he is very talented, both as an actor and director! He did it to himself with those leaked audio clips but I think that was just an unfortunate rant!

    The little fight scene between Desmond & his brother brought back a memory or two.I'ma '70s kid,the older kids would watch us younger ones fight when it got to that point & not break it up,then after make us shake hands,weird,but it was like that;) We couldnt not shake hands or the older dudes would punch the hell outcha & say, "shake his d@mn hand". The good ole days Lol:)

      Boys need to be boys. As long as no bricks get involved, it's a good thing for young males to work off their energy during testosterone highs. If they don't, their body produces too much cortisol and they get all bothered and distracted. This is what eventually leads to ADHD.
      I have a newborn son. When he's that age, I hope to raise him with a bit of the old time flair. Cause if kids are afraid to defend themselves, they'll be afraid to defend their loved ones as adults.

    50% Of the story was shown in this movie.
    He saved 150+ Amercian and Japanese soldiers.
    The battle lasted for 9 full days.
    He carried, dragged and lowered bodies and people for days and nights.
    He was injured, but he refused to take a stretcher from someone else who could use it more.
    He continued to help people when he was injured, he refused to leave the battleground until they won the fight.
    When the battle was won he received treatment for his injury.
    They didn't wanna show his full story, because they didn't think people would believe his story. They already thought this was too much for people to believe in.

    The reason why the Japanese are so confident as you say, is because back, then, in World War II, which is when this movie took place, if Japanese soldiers did not die in battle, and came home, then it was taken as disgrace and their entire family would be deemed a disgrace because they didn’t die in war

    there is a couple of stories on you tube about desmond, his army career, desmond saved more tha 75, it reconed to be over 100, and he did many other acts, they decided o 75 and not to show, full story, and they thought it would not be believed by the audience, also know there was a figure put forward when he recieved his medal, im not sure what that was, the sinper shot that hit his helment, im going to say that is in reference to a sniper who was interviewed, and he said he had desmond in his sights, he tried a few times, but his rifle would not fire. how accurate all this is i guess, we can only go from the history and the stories

    I will make a suggestion to watch the movie about the first Conscientious Objector who was awarded the Medal of Honor. The movie was made in 1941 starring Gary Cooper. The Movie Sergeant York is about Alvin York's life and finding God then being drafted for WWI. Where Desmond Doss is the first Conscientious Objector who refused to use a weapon, Sergeant York used his rifle to save lives.

    War is hell. This is the American History they should teach in school. Desmond went on saving other lives on other islands. Well over 100. He was truly a hero.
    I am 75 and was a Navy Corpsman/Marine Medic during Vietnam. The first thing we were told was to get rid of any medical emblems on our uniforms, and not to respond to anyone using "Medic". We were told to have our units call us by our names.
    I too married a nurse. We talked for 5 minutes. Then I called my Dad and said to my Father that I had found the girl I was going to marry. Called her and made a date for the next day, and we were together for 53 years until she passed away due to an undiagnosed cancer after 11 days.

    And people wonder why after about a year or two of being married you never go to the Movies together. Well here's your complete "A movie date and what awaits you" for all you really, really young guys (Pro-tip the Husbands/Boyfriends normally hang out in the Restroom just B.S.ing taking rotations on "stomach pains").
    The funniest thing is once your gone they will stop screaming............go figure.

    Forget the fictional propaganda, Saving Private Ryan. Hacksaw Ridge is the greatest WW2 movie ever made and thats largely because its based on a true story. And the telling of Desmond Doss' incredible story was LONG overdue.
