They nicknamed him "Preach" He was part of the 3 man crew that affixed the cargo nets to the side of the cliff every day (even though the japanese in this movie never appeared to understand the concept of "JUST CUT THE THING DOWN THEN THEY CAN'T GET UP HERE" (of COURSE they cut it down whenever they got the chance) He was shot in the arm by a tank crew and dragged himself back to the net on his elbows. (that was part of the ordeal with the grenade...and AFTER he'd been hit in the leg with the grenade so he was already wounded) 75 men was the compromise between his insistence it was less than 50 and his fellow soldiers counter-insisting that it was well over 100. Also that number did not include those he simply helped to the net and were able to lower themselves. He wasn't a private at that battle either, he'd been promoted to corporal (I think after the battle of Guam? Maybe) Anyway, he'd been an officer for quite some time.
      And the army kind of....screwed him out of the medical benefits he should have gotten for those injuries. For sixty years. When he did die, it was cited that complications from said injuries were a major contributing factor in his death. (Pneumonia)
      He refused to have a book/movie/documentary made about his life during his lifetime. The estate gave permission with the condition that it be made or released only after 10 years (thus the release date being in 2016)

      It is an excellent telling of Doss' story, but it is not 100 percent true...quite a few things were changed for various reasons. Other folks have talked about the fact that Doss' true exploits were actually toned down a little to make them "more believable", but his story was also very much compressed so that they would fit in a reasonable time. In reality, Doss and his unit fought in the campaign to take Guam in the Marianas, and in the Philippines campaign, and Doss was awarded 2 Bronze Stars for his actions in both of those battles. There were also a lot of other things they changed that are not of any real significance, like the fact that Hacksaw Ridge was out of range of naval gunfire, and was not nearly that clifflike...but it really does not matter to the overall impact of the film.
      Sorry if you knew all that and were just being really complimentary and keeping it brief. ✌

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."
    Great reaction! I feel a bit sorry for Hannah 😊and as she said, yes we are actually very lucky to not have been to war.

    This movie had a really good impact on me. 2016 was a rough year and I let it get the better of me. Some of my family was sick and I had to make adjustments and drop out of college. I didn't handle the transition well and got bitter. I withdrew from family and friends and didn't try and find a job or a new school situation. I got depressed and stopped trying just about everything. Then I saw this film with my family and I cried a little which I never do. It made me want to do good in spite of bad circumstances. I apologized to my friends and my family and enrolled in community college and got a job and started to let people in again. I started volunteering and focusing on other people and family rather than feeling sorry for myself Just because I wanted to be like Desmond just a little.

    Everything about this film reminds me about my grandfather. The stories he told were jaw dropping. He was sort of a Smitty character on the battlefield but he did not chalk it up to heroics. As he put it, he figured that he was going to die anyway so he thought he should at least make it count. During one attack he went though an entire box of grenades with live grenades placed in front of him to waste time on the fuse. He did that because he got tired of the Japanese soldiers picking up the grenades and throwing them back. On another occasion he was knocked down a hill by an artillery blast (lost most of his his hearing for awhile) and had to dust himself off and go right back up. He even received a medal for taking out a couple of tanks by himself. He did very crazy things and still came home but the war stayed with him for a long time afterward. He nearly choked my grandmother in his sleep because he was having a nightmare about fighting a Japanese soldier. I marvel about how he adjusted and managed to live a normal life until age 91.

    The scene when his dad comes to court, that actor wasn't there, he was green screen in later. Mel Gibson did that scene you can see his arm in one of the shots, also his son plays in the movie and can be seen in the barracks. From what Mel said in an interview that Doss, made them stop and put him down so they could take another guy first. he was helping others while he waited for them to come back and get him, Doss had 17 pieces of metal in his body from that grenade and he waited because so he could Save more lives.
    (Just one more)

The Bible actually teaches in Ecclesiastes that “there is a time to kill“ also the sixth Comandment of the 10 Commandments in the Bible teaches that you shall not “murder” even though some translations use the broader term “kill“. Regardless of his interpretation, Doss, by God’s grace, held to what he believed it ment and accomplished one of the greatest acts of bravery ever accomplished!!
    He believed the truth that basically life is all about Jesus and what we do with what He said.

Every single seventh-day Adventist child is taught (in Pathfinder's) to be a medic. The goal is to save lives because it's never ours to take. And any seventh-day Adventist in the military will save both the enemy as well as their company because it's never our place to judge.

    Love the movie and the reaction. You guys are great! Ash, we need a quick chat in terminology: When Desmond uses the belt as a tourniquet, it's an example of "foreshadowing" rather than symbolisms as you put it. Symbolism is when you put one thing as a visual to reference something else, usually a concept that doesn't have a direct visual representation. Foreshadowing is when you introduce an item, idea, image or other plot device that doesn't warrant much immediate attention, but later becomes crucial.

    One of the main reasons I love this movie is because it is VERY honest about what war is. There is no sugar coating the brutality and horror of it. It shows it for what it is. Death, and trauma, and loss, and being surrounded by it for hours and days and months. Desmond Doss was a hero, and brave to the point of stupidity, and this movie only covers ONE of the battles he was in during WW2. In my opinion the world needs more people like Doss. Looking to heal people in the face of horror and death, no matter what side they're on.

    This is one of my all time favorite movies. One of the things I love most about it is for most of the movie you think he doesn’t want to touch a gun mostly because of his religion and then because of hurting his brother with a brick. It isn’t until he’s in the foxhole with smitty that you realize he felt like he killed his father in his heart when he grabbed his gun so that’s why he didn’t want to pick up a gun. That’s just so amazing

    This is 100% a true story and I love your guys’ reactions. I know how gut wrenching this movie is and your reactions are so real and visceral. PFC Doss was actually very humble about the entire thing and tried to convince them to mark down fewer lives saved than he actually did. He is the epitome of bravery and honor

    They actually toned it DOWN and REMOVED some parts of the story, because it's so incredibly insane, people would believe it was just hollywood exagerating. He did save way over 100 people, but insisted it was only 50, so they settled on 75. After being wounded he got of the strecher to help several other wounded soldiers, and insisting they get carried away first. His arm got broken, and he mended it himself with the butt of a rifle. There's more too, but I don't remember it all.

    The part where Desmond on the Edge of the Ridge and asked the Lord, what is it what he wants him to do? Desmond heard words Medic someone was calling for Medic. Desmond knew what his Lord wanted him to do. Desmond got his Helmet and going into the explosions from the artillery shells from the Battleships. When he was going into the explosions it reminded me a verse.
    Psalm 23:4 “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”

    Finally! And now on to Gibson's other masterpiece, Apocalypto.
    And, by the way, Doss saved many more - and when he was injured, and was on a stretcher, he climbed off and offered the stretcher to another guy, whom he judged to have been more injured - and he crawled himself to safety. But Gibson said that he could not include all that, because, although real, it is so extraordinary that people would not believe it.
    "Lord, help me get one more."
    So, now on to Apocalypto...

    He was a humble man saying he saved about 30 people, but the members who were below and received the people he saved said there was up in the 100+ So they settled with 75. The men believed it to be around 175 he saved, not only US soldiers, but Japanese soldiers too. They had to tone this movie down because they thought the audience would never believe the story other wise. This battle went on for 9 days, he kept saving lives day in and out. He was badly injured the last fight and kept ''fighting'' with his soldiers, but like i said...people would never believed it so they sent him down to tone the movie down.
    Desmond's children gave their approval of Andrews acting on their father and said he did it so well, i can't see anyone else giving the performance he did...the emotions the character he displayed was out of this world. I wish they didn't tone it down and actually did the entire story.

    46:27 the Island of Okinawa was made of volcanic rock, it made perfect ground for safe tunnel systems for barracks and bunker positions. Also everytime the navy would flatten the Japanese positions they would run back in to the tunnels and charge back out when it stopped. Apparently the Americans lost a few attacks and a lot of men on hacksaw before doss’s men moved up on it!

    Desmond Thomas Doss deserves an entire museum in his honor and here's why:
    He was a company aid man when the 1st Battalion assaulted a jagged escarpment 400 feet high. As our troops gained the summit, a heavy concentration of artillery, mortar and machinegun 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 all 75 casualties 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 May 2, 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 2 days later he treated 4 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 4 separate trips under fire to evacuate them to safety. On May 5, 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 May 21, 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 aid man from cover, he cared for his own injuries and waited 5 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, by a sniper bullet while being carried off the field by a comrade, 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. He also received the Medal of Honor form President Truman, for his actions on Okinawa.

    "His face just lit up and he said 'I thought I was blind.' And if that smile was the only thing I received in the war. I would have been well repaid."
