​@@umbracusto I'm pretty sure I know why. They want heroism to come of its own accord, organically. Because if a soldier goes fishing for citations he might get himself or his buddies smoked and dead. So they're giving you an example to think about in between learning to obey orders and follow your seniors. I'm no soldier myself, but that's what I would do if I were training new recruits.

I was actually surprised you didn't call attention to Doss' CMoH Citation, because you would see that he performed so many heroic acts over and over again. For instance, in the scene where he was being carried on a litter due to grenade injuries to his legs, he insisted that his litter bearers leave him behind to take another injured fighter to the aid station. During that time, there was a tank attack, and while he was assisting the injured, he was wounded again, now with a broken arm. After tending to the other wounded, he dealt with his own injuries, used an abandoned rifle stock as a splint, and crawled more than 100 yards under fire to the aid station. Oh, and during that time, he had tuberculosis, which caused him to later lose a lung. During the excarpment saves, Doss guessed he lowered about 50 people, but multiple witnesses claimed he lowered over 100 wounded men, so they "settled" at 50.

I didn’t go through all the comments, but it’s important to remember that absolutely and categorically Doss’s actions were driven by his faith in the God he knows exists. The Bible clearly teaches that “there is a time to kill“. The sixth commandment means you shall not murder though it is often translated simply as kill. That certainly does not reduce any of my incredible respect and amazement at his deeds and resolve to follow his convictions. His book was one of the first books I had my oldest daughter read back in the 90s. Appreciate you guys.

There's a reason I find Vince Vaughn is actually somewhat true to life. He's not a Drill Sergeant. He's a Veteran Sergeant. He's been recalled from his unit to help train the next wave of its recruits. So he hasn't actually been trained as a drill instructor, he's just bringing his experience and giving them the basic experience of serving under a combat NCO. I'm sure you're probably aware, but the US Army Drill Sergeant program didn't exist until, I think, about Vietnam. I think it was actually President Kennedy who first instated it. Veteran Sergeants used to be how the Army trained its new guys, but the results that it produced were found to be unreliable. Which is why centrally-trained drill instructors were introduced.

Big fan of the channel, gotta say this episode was pretty hilarious to hear the amount of shit they talk about "woke" culture and then immediately show a clip of Doss refusing to hold a rifle by holding onto his beliefs and not seeing the irony in that. Thinking critically about, and believing in your position, that's all that it is. As many permutations as there are people of course, and social media distorting it, but that just really made me actually laugh out loud.

You are absolutely wrong about the width of a tourniquet. One of the reasons RATS tourniquets are not TCCC approved is because they are exactly what you are describing. A tourniquet needs to be a minimum of 2 inches wide. The wider the tourniquet the better the pressure is applied to deep tissue. On the flip side the thinner a tourniquet is the more pressure will be required stop blood flow, lowering you chances of being able to apply enough, as well as increasing the chances of tissue damage if you do. The reason belts don't make good tourniquets is because it is very difficult to get it tight enough. If you do not it could actually have the opposite effect making the bleeding worse, the same way they use a constricting band to make your veins bulge for an IV. I know this is kind of a long comment addressing a throwaway statement but you are somebody your viewers trust and those who do not know any better will take your word at face value. Before giving any kind of advice on potentially life saving topics spend at least a couple minutes on Google making sure you're right.

You could describe me as pretty woke-ish but I never in my life would have gotten that "toxic masculinity" vibe from the scene after he got jumped. On the contrary he got beat up cause ppl saw him as liability and wanted him to leave, which is totally fair given his character has no way to defend his brothers in arms. And him not snitching on anyone shows again that he's persistent in his believes and determined to proof the rest wrong/show them that they are in the same boat. None of those are "toxic" traits especially not given the setting of the scene/movie.

To me, the best scene was the Doss in the military court. It was what you said to stick with your conviction. As Doss was in front of a General or military judge, he could easily take back what he said, take the rifle, and head to war. But in the monologue, Doss gives why he is willing to serve but not take a rifle. He lost some friends from suicide cause of 4-F, and he could easily, as a civilian, apply conscientious objector war (not easy as you think to acquire). Lastly, he explained why he enlisted in the aftermath of Pearl Harbor. His father served in WWI, and Doss saw the effects of war on men. He knows there's nothing he can do about the carnage of war. The best he can do as a medic is to save as many lives as possible and bring them home. He lived up to his conviction in the movie or real life, even intercepting the grenade as it could have killed him, protecting his comrades from harm. As always, Buck keeps Beers and Break Down going; yeah, the censorship sucks, but sometimes you got to play the game. It's possible your Joe Rogan threesome tentacle corn reference got you, but it was hilarious. Movie Request Police Academy movies (you don't have to do all of them).

Buck's right but he's wrong, too. That mind set, has a place, but it is a compromised mindset. An ODA wasn't caught trafficking drugs and minors for no reason. That's sort of the same reason why DV, and the exploitation of childhood rape survivors is such a hard thing to deal with. Everyone misunderstands staying in their lane/live and let live/snitches get stitches, etc. Crimes against the most vulnerable of our society hurts the overall cohesion and capabilities of our society. In that same way, military personnel and recruits getting out of line hurts the readiness and effectiveness of the military. How the unit initially reacted to Doss is a prime example of how dudes who are full of shit can be a liability. Men like Doss who want to fill vital roles and don't necessarily need to carry and use weapons can be important to a military. And he ended up being worth his salt and then some. If they had succeeded in running him off, the unit would have been the worse for it. Given that, historically, the majority of stretcher bearers and combat medics would have been musicians or skirmishers who ran out of javelins and sling bullets, they had no business giving a fuck if Doss carried a gun. Hell, most of a military isn't combat arms. Before modern armies the bulk of people going on campaign were women, children, and non-fighting men who were listed as camp-followers. The actual soldiers would have been a minority in the camp. The height of the fighting man was a metro-sexual aristocrat who grew up spoiled, spent his whole life learning the way of war as a sport, and went into combat with the Gucciest gear he could afford. And when someone is a righteous busy-body, and looks out for a person who needed someone to look out for them, we still think back to that warrior elite and call them their "knight in shining armor". But Buck gets a pas because he was probably around too many explosions and his head ain't right.

It is so discouraging to hear people you respect and admire then talking about being "woke" in such a cartoon characterization way. Ugh. I'm a "leftie" liberal, probably what you might consider woke from a very blue state. Woke is just a word that certain people on the right use as a replacement for "snowflake" and actuality means nothing more than being open-minded and aware of social, and racial injustice. No one that I'm aware of tries to meddle or has any interest in altering military training. That's crazy! Since the military leans right, how would that even happen? Please understand that there is a lot of misinformation being spread around under the heading of "woke." Blue hair is just a silly story like "democrats want litter boxes in schools." Nonsense!

With the japanese "not making it", I had a medic who worked with the marines in the war in Iraq as an RDC, and he said that you learn sometimes there's a choice you have to make between helping enemy troops and helping your own, since sometimes you dont have enough supplies for both. You can help them as much as you can, but with a battle like Okinawa, you can't always be sure you will be able to save all your troops if you try to also save the enemies. And i know that there is a hell of a lot of medical supplies that they had, but with the amount of casualties in Okinawa, plus how many more they could have possibly had, you can't be sure.

Desmond Doss is interred at the Chattanooga National Cemetary. The top of his marker is usually overflowing with coins. He saved much more then 50 or 100 especially over the course of the war. Imagine having saved 100 men, now multiply that by their kids and grandkids. There's a lot of people to stop to show their respect, and to pray. His Grave is a temple. I've known some tough dudes, absolutely real life GI Joe characters....but none of them would say they were as BA as Desmond. Everything I have read shows they actually toned down what he accomplished in the movie to make it more beleivable. Thanks to every medic, corpsman, PJ etc.....you are God's answered prayers.

What the fuck was that interlude on "wokeness"... never have I heard such an array of word salad directly contradicting oneself. "Snitching" isn't the concept of wokeness. The irony is that you both correctly identify the #ToxicMasculinity in the blanket party. Wokeness isn't the idea that Doss snitches on them, but rather that there shouldn't have been a blanket party in the first place. You go on about earning respect, which is true... but toxic masculinity disregards normal means of earning that respect, largely for hollow displays. Take Doss, he wasn't drafted. He enlisted. He volunteered to be there, and then fought to stay there while being an outcast. That; under a normal lens, should be enough to earn the respect of which you speak. But it isn't. "Wokeness isn't going to save you", but wokeness did. Smitty stepped in to stop the attack, because it wasn't right. Smitty was very much a member of the "pack" (as you deemed it), and could have easily gone along with everyone else. Toxic masculinity is performative masculinity. Healthy Masculinity is Doss for sticking to his principles without lashing out at those that cast stones against him. He put his ass on the line to protect all of them, regardless of whether he respected them or not.

And what was even more amazing about Doss was that he did all that stuff on Okinawa on one working lung, as he had already contracted tuberculosis by that time. (He wasn't diagnosed with that until after the war, and his bad lung was surgically removed, I believe.) Talk about sheer grit and focus, man had it in spades.

Maybe it's Mel Gibson's personality or upbringing, but he consistently delivers movies that we vets/active duty love. His movies are badass and don't sugarcoat anything about war. It's a true honor that Mel Gibson's return to the industry is the telling the story of a TRUE hero.

i agree that "woke" can go too far, but there is bad male behavior, not in this context of the movie, but if a cop beats up a homeless guy and you dont report him you are an ass not "part of the blue line". for example

The one scene I really enjoyed was when his father who was abusive and definitely suffering from what years later would be know as PTSD, came in to stand up for his son in court. I'd like to also know if his brother made it back home since I don't think we really saw him again after the war. I also absolutely loved seeing the real Desmond Doss being interviewed.

Thank you all for this. Whenever I face personal adversity and challenge (no matter how painful), I know better men have done much more. This is some of my inspiration to endeavor to persevere and keep my progress to heal / be better. It really reminds me that my challenges and obstacles are really nothing and strengthens me to persist until I can overcome. For this, I am grateful.

Thin is actually a bad thing. Too wide is better than too thin. NAR requires 1.5" or more for TQ qualifications. A belt would actually make it worse because it's tight but not tight enough causing the blood to be squeezed and flow faster. Just a little info on that.

Do and what ya'll have to go through. The reactions and breakdowns are dope. I just subscribed and would be cool to see other movies like Expendables, From Paris with Love, Shooter, Lethal Weapon and Equalizer. Obviously all use movie magic but should be fun vids.
