His kids grew up never knowing their Dad was a hero in the war. Not until a writer came to Desmond asking to write about his life and heroics. That's when they learned what their Dad did in the war. He just never talked about it. They never knew until then. That their Dad won the Medal of Honor. Our country's highest military award for bravery.

In his battles, he saved much more than the movie gave him credit for. It was well over 130 men he saved in at least a couple battles. And in that war, he was the only concientious objector to win the Medal of Honor ...the highest award for valor in the US Military. Great movie and thanks for the great reactions.

the 75 number was actually a compromise. The reports from his commanding officers during his recommendation claimed he saved around 100, where Doss reported only 50, probably due to his humble nature.

I think I was told once, he was actually put up for a second MOH, which is amazing! Some other great true type or True story movies are 13 hours, Lone Survivor, once we were Soldiers, Blackhawk Down, Fury, Thin Red Line, Unbroken, Dunkirk,1917, American Sniper, Braveheart. Braveheart, Once we were Soldiers, and Hacksaw Ridge, all directed by Mel Gibson. His main writer producer of his production company is a descendant of William Wallace!!😮😮But maybe the greatest soldier of all time was a guy in Vietnam named Roy Benevides. Injured in Korea and early in Vietnam, it's amazing the guy could even walk! Yet he recovered, ran 5 miles a day and 1000 pushups a day, went to jump school then special forces training, then back to Vietnam. 37 knife gun shrapnel wounds, intestines coming out, destroyed jaw, eyes sealed closed by dried blood, and he survived! I met him once in the early 90s, when I was in the 82 Airborne. Not a big guy either! kzread.info/dash/bejne/ooWKpKihhrDIiZs.html

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.

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.”

I never met Mr. Doss but a few of my friends knew him and said he was so humble and modest. I wish I had gotten the opportunity to meet him. He lived only a few miles from me before he passed. I love that he also helped the injured Japanese soldiers. At that time, the Japanese culture was never to surrender, so they literally would fight and win or lose and die. They looked down on anyone who surrendered, usually did not take prisoners and no mercy for the injured. That’s why they took their own lives.

Please yes, tell your friends and family about this man. It is a little-known story of World War II even here in the US. Most Americans didn't know about this until the movie came out and this, I think is wrong. We need to know about this and ALL the other brave stories. Your reaction was great.

A few things that were glossed over. Doss was a 7th day Adventist, a sect of Christianity that has few different orthodoxies different from other Christian denominations, but the ones rather important here are pacifism, vegetarianism, and sabbath on Saturday. While practically all other Christians faith also preaches a level of pacifism, 7th day Adventists basically consider any level of harm against another human as a grave sin. While rather common nowadays, vegetarianism was a rather rare dietary choice at the time, which further ostracized him from his company and when added with the last component, observing the Sabbath (the day of rest) on Saturday rather than Sunday. During training, the vast majority had the common sabbath, Sunday off, so while the rest of barracks were still working, Doss had Saturday off, but were also away from the barracks the on Sunday when he was basically on his own doing duties- they thought he was getting the whole weekend off rather than just 1 they were getting. All of this kinda forced resentment among his company.

He said he saved 30, but the people there said he saved 100+ so they settled with the number 75 in-between. The real story is allegedly he saved 175 soldiers, not only US Soldiers...but Japanese soldiers too. He demanded to not be taken down when he got injured, but kept ''fighting'' until they won. The battle lasted for 9 days in total and he was saving lives all day and night.....unreal right? But it's the truth, they had to tone the movie down 50% other wise no one would ever believe this story...i wish they would have kept it 100% It's an insane story and Andrew did this role flawlessly! Getting credit from Desmond's children saying he displayed their father to perfection

There is no finer showing of how a man should carry himself than Doss. As a retired US Army Vet i can tell you this is the standard we hold ourselves to now based on heros like this who served before us

Please understand, 5000 US soldiers died and 49,000 casualties. Japan had 110,000 soldiers die with only 8000 surviving. The island population lost 100,000 people, 1/3 of the population. The battle of Okinawa lasted 3 months. My uncle and great uncle were there. I so admired those men.

52:08 Yes. It's called Seppuku. That officer probably felt like a failure in the eyes of his superiors for failing to destroy the enemy and thereby failing his men/country. Seppuku is the act of "Honorable Suicide." When a Samurai had his honor stripped from him in a grievous manner... usually total failure in the eyes of the one(s) he serves (perhaps failure to protect his lord.) He could commit to the act of Seppuku in order to regain/prove his honor by mortally wounding himself in a very painful manner (mostly by stabbing and draw-cutting across his guts.) which can be a very slow and painful way to die. To commit themselves to this willingly is seen by others as a redemption of their honor and so they conclude this act by "acknowledging his honorable act and by way of mercy or accepting his apology", they cut off his head to kill him instantly... sparing him the pain. That is the art of Seppuku "honorable suicide."

The real story of private Doss actually is lot worse. He contracted tuberculosis in 1946 and spent 5 1/2 years essentially confined to hospitals and had to have his lung and 5 ribs removed. He was finally discharged in 1951 with 90% disability. He actually got shot twice during carrying those men down and his left arm was damaged to the point where he couldn't do carpentry anymore. He continued to get antibiotic treatments at the VA until an overdose caused him to go deaf in 1976 where he finally got 100% disability. Thankfully he regained his hearing in 1988 thanks to a cochelar implant. The sadder story is that Dorthy his wife you see in the movie got cancer and while Desmond was driving his wife to the hospital for cancer treatment, his car slide out of control from the rain and sadly killed his wife in 1990. He remarried in 1993 and lived the rest of his days until he died at age 87 in 2006. His second wife died in 2009.

Every time I watch this it gets me very emotional. When Doss jumps with the dead Smitty.... Then the Lt, who was beyond a scumbag to Doss, but when he finally comes down the looks he was getting from the men was like he was a miracle worker, then the Lt lovingly and gently put his hand on Dosses face asking if he was wounded, then he said lets get this soldier to a hospital tent. The fact is Doss actually saved over 100 lives and had his heroics watered down for this movie because they thought nobody would believe what he did. Mel Gibsons decision to REDUCE what Desmond Doss did, knowing this made it even more emotional the 2nd time seeing this and every time after that. The fact that there's no hollywood BS here, everything actually happened, he was an angel of God in the hellhole of war. A great man and a true hero in EVERY sense of the words, "great" and "hero" are overused words in todays insane society, but Desmond Doss was both and then some, he's a Congressional Medal of Honor recipient, that says it all... RIP Desmond.

From start to finish, from the actors' performance and director's cinematography, to the stark contrast between love and war, to the beautiful story and hero they are paying respects to, this movie is a masterpiece. It comfortably sits at the top of list as my favorite movie. Regardless of beliefs we should all aspire to have a fraction of the selflessness of Desmond Doss

This story about Desmond doss is real story! If you go to features on DVD he tells about his experiences. This is a mel Gibson directed tragic graphic war story, with body parts flying, instant multiple deaths! Be prepared for tears an sadness, especially over Christmas season. Seeing your tree in background. It feels good saving someone, an he saved 75 on that ridge. I'm at 61 but will never be on his level because my rescues were not under war combat conditions. But 61 still feels good! I was raised differently than most. I had 2 uncles survived Pearl Harbor and my dad joined Navy an underwater demolition team UDT on next day, Dec 8th. 1941, with millions of other in unique club. So I was raised by a trained killer. He kept score of night knife kills! Can you imagine keeping score of knife kills!? He was best dad you could have, being scout master to all the neighborhood. So, are you rethinking being equal to men an being drafted? Looks on your faces say, war is intense! Desmond's wife was played by Teresa Palmer. Check out her starring role in "Ride like a Girl" with Sam Neil! True story as well!

My uncle was in the South Pacific fighting the Japanese. He was in a Fox hole and he said the Japanese soldiers were stealing American uniforms. They would speak English to fool them. My uncle used a code called Lovely Luscious Lollapalooza. The Japanese could not say L it would come out R. That is how we won that battle.

❤️❤️❤️❤️ TO SEE THESE BEAUTIFUL SOULD WATCH THIS MOVIE WAS SO HEARTWARMING!!! THIS WAS AN AMAZING FILM AND DESMONDS HEROIC STORY SHOULD BE KNOWN EVERYWHERE

men like Desmond are true war hero's they never glorify war and seek attention and fame like plenty of modern-day military do, he remained humble and downplayed his incredible feats of bravery and always remained true to his faith its men like him who really do deserve to be thanked for their service..

Screw comic books, this man is a true hero.

Seeing Desmond’s smile at the end broke me in all the right ways

I'm glad to see your girls reacting to another movie ❤️❤️❤️

The cliff is actually much higher in life… if you look at photos of the actors climbing the rope ladder, the cliff is only 7x taller than an upright actor in the foreground. The real ridge is like 450’ or 500’ high Id have to look it up

Crazy thing about this guy is what happened in this battle isn't even the craziest thing he did, this is one of the more believable stories from this mans time at war, that much of a hero.

The Homies, Colt 45 here, if you wanna know more about Desmond Doss his life his experience in the war and his action that took place on Hacksaw Ridge, watch the Conscientious Objector, Desmond Doss himself is on there and fellow soldiers including Jack Glover are also on there there tell there stories on how they mistreated Doss and how they came to regret there decisions. Repeat it’s called the conscientious objector

He saved more than 130 men during battles on three different islands, but Mel Gibson thought real-life was too unbelievable. The army wanted to put 100 lives saved on his Medal of Honor certificate; Desmond requested that it say only 50. They compromised on 75.

Hacksaw Ridge is arguably the greatest WW2 movie ever made

In some battles Japan didn't have enough ammunition to support their men so they tried to rush in waves like we saw in this movie with the hopes they would over whelm.

-“I could’ve gotten one more person, and I didn’t. I didn’t.” 😢😢 (Oskar Schindler) Schindlers list -“Please Lord, Help me get one more.” 😢 (Desmond Doss) Hacksaw Ridge.

I swear I love you both so much you two bring the best in reactions 🖤🖤

Also to add to the Doss-was-so-much-more-badass-in-life comments: He did this all while malnourished. He was a vegetarian without a proper vegetarian diet-he just skipped the provided meat. PLUS he got dysentery from contaminated coconuts, so he was actually worse than malnourished

Another cinematic masterpiece from Mel Gibson ❤

When I am home alone it is so nice watching movies with you two beautiful Ladies ! Thank you !

My daughter named my grandson Doss after Desmond Doss.

He was nicknamed... The Miracle of Hacksaw. Fitting...

What an amazing man,we need billions like him!!!

His brother Harold 'Hal' Doss served in the the US Navy during the WW -II

I like your reaction. I am a man who is pretty tolerant of violence in movies and TV, but even I found the combat scenes harrowing. I have read that this was on purpose; Mel Gibson wanted to "put the audience in a foxhole" in the battle. Regarding the guy who had his legs blown off: I have EMT training, and when a limb is removed raggedly like that the arterial bleeding often slows or stops, because clotting happens in that ragged flesh. It's when an artery is cleanly severed, by some kind of incision, that the bleeding is much more dangerous. Oh, and the actor who played the soldier whose legs were blown off: He was a veteran of Afghanistan who had his legs blown off by an improvised explosive device. When he appeared to be moving normally before that scene, he was actually wearing prosthetics. I guess he did not need training or advice to show how a man is in pain with a wound like that. This is by far, by far my favorite war movie.

If I may make a movie suggestion, it is, "To Live". It is a heart wrenching, heart warming movie in Mandarin Chinese with English subtitles. (The director, Zhang Yi-Mou is the genius behind the 2008 summer Olympics opening ceremony)

I loved this movie. It is definitely inspirational. It makes you want to be a better person.

Before this movie I always wondered why there was a highway here and a school named after him and turns out I live 5 minutes from his former house which is now a veterans house

Never hears told he has the right to run through the fires of hell without a single weapon to protect himself. That's exactly what he did to save than men.

I cried with you both as I watched this with you both.

such a beautiful reaction! thank you so much!

Japanese troops rarely (if ever) surrendered. They followed the code of Bushido (the Way of the Warrior), where to die serving the Emperor was glorious and to surrender unthinkable. If they didn't die in combat, most committed suicide. A very, VERY tough enemy to fight.

The full true story of Private Desmond Doss is even more unbelievable.

The military is also known as the armed forces, armed. So it is very unusual for anyone to expect to go through basic training without qualifying with a firearm.

Letters from Iwo Jima movie is from the Japanese point of view. Worth a watch and thank you for the reactions : )

They actually left a lot of things out because they thought if they included everything, he did it would seem like it was made up. Let that sink in

Growing up in the 50s, my best friend's father was at Okinawa, except he was fighting Kamaksis. He was part of a crew on a bofour anti-aircraft gun. His ship was hit close to where he was working. Ray was severely wounded though he was still carrying shrapnel in different parts of his body. One of the things I remember he told us (he only spoke of the war once to us because we hounded him) the thing about being there that was so horrible was the smell and the sounds. The big guns of the ship he was rattled your brains and the screams of the wounded, especially your own, can't be forgotten. He heard later that one of the gunner committed suicide that day by jumping overboard. No matter how realistic a movie nothing can come close to actual combat,

The real battle was not letting u guys make me cry. Great reaction Great job. ☺

This is my favorite movie because its so unbelievable, yet it actually happened and Doss has the medal to prove it.

This is 100% true and in fact the movie omits a lot of what Desmond did because frankly the film makers thought people would believe they made it up and took creative license. He was a truly incredible man who absolutely earned that Medal of Honor

He wasn't court martialed, though. He encountered a lot of resistance until he proved himself as a caring, compassionate medic.
