Vince Vaughn saying "you must be part Indian. Let me hear your Indian war cry!" Was his way of saying that the polish guy who threw the knife was "savage". And called him "chief", because his "enthusiasm" with a weapon was prized by the military, & what he'd need to survive.

[@dearjoan]

He actually saved more than 75. Desmond was very, very humble. The Army estimated he saved more than 100 and Desmond said no more than 50, so they compromised on 75. Desmond's son was very impressed with Garfield and said he felt like his dad was alive again. They did take some liberties with the stories though. There is some interesting documentaries about him out there.

[@gk5891]

Definitely. My understanding is the most likely count was 104 but I'm unsure if that includes the Japanese. He was actually in combat for 298 days (if I recall correctly) and Hacksaw Ridge and the men he rescued there are only part of the story (His service ending injury actually occurred later and he spent years in recovery and rehab).

[@SilentXtract]

@@gk5891 from what I read it was 125-135 with the Japanese included but the truth is we won’t know the real number of boys he lowered down. I call them boys bc that’s what they were kids 17-22 mostly some even younger if they lied about their age.

[@thomasmills339]

" Desmond ?" like you knew him? Why do you do things like this? Go online and copy and paste from Wikipedia? Does it make you feeling smart? Superior? Like you are a WW2 expert? It's embarrassing. You are embarrassing.

[@dearjoan]

@@thomasmills339 No, but being rude seems to make you feel superior. I just enjoyed a movie, learned to appreciate a man and his good deeds, and cared enough to watch more documentaries about his life. It’s ironic that you behave like this underneath a video about a man who had nothing but kindness and selflessness for people.

[@gk5891]

@@thomasmills339 it was my impression he preferred Desmond. I only had the great pleasure of one relatively brief conversation, but that's what he asked of me.

[@cbobwhite5768]

If you read about him, you'll find that IRL, after he was wounded and they were carrying him out, on the stretcher, he saw a soldier that was wounded worse than he was. Dos rolled off the stretcher and told the men to load up the other soldier, and carry him out first.

[@kazyamato2720]

I love the part where he says" I can't hear you" and the cry for the medic is calling him is giving me goosebumps.

[@LlamaLlamaMamaJamaac]

Interesting fact: A while back I Google Imaged one of the scenes where the soldiers were climbing up the ridge. One soldier who was upright, was about 1/7 the height of this cliff. If we take an even number and say he was 6’ tall, that would make the cliff about 42’ high. *The real Hacksaw Ridge was 450’ high*

[@georgewilliamsiii4677]

Yea it would have been like rising and lowering into another realm. The smoke and cries. The rain of blood they showed.

[@dunbardunelm3924]

I read on IMDb differently. But then, I trust anything more that Google 🤣🤣

[@LlamaLlamaMamaJamaac]

@@dunbardunelm3924 what did you read on IMDB? I’ll look at it when I get a minute…. But I’m talking about a photo from this movie that shows the entire cliff base-to-summit with soldiers climbing up. Our eyes can see scale within a photo I did see since it was 400’ high so the extra 50’ could have been my mistake…. I wrote this 3 months ago so don’t remember if I was typing from memory. But still several times higher than an estimated 42’ assuming a 6’ tall man. IMDB is not a site for geographic or geologic information…. So I wouldn’t be looking there to learn about the actual ridge

[@PowerDiva]

Fun fact - Andrew Garfield is British and Luke Bracey (Smitty) is Australian. But both are fantastic in this film, and are able to cover their accents well and blend in with their characters.

[@MrfuckinBeilke]

nothing fun about that

[@andidreyes5323]

A great actor makes you forget that you are watching an "actor". That it's a performance. This is why I have issues with people who get mad about LGBTQIA actors playing LGBTQIA character/roles or similar. The whole point of becoming an actor is to fully convince the audience that you are the character, that you are coming to every decision as if it was a new thought/decision/process AS its happening. I have yet to hear someone convince me that their "group" deserves to never have a professional actor convincingly play the character of a role correctly and only people of their "group" should play it. Sometimes, a different person who has no idea, can give it a better understanding than people who grew up knowing about these things.

[@PowerDiva]

@@andidreyes5323 I agree... as someone who is part of the LGBTQ community, I don't necessarily feel that only LGBTQ people can or should play those roles. Part of acting is sinking into the character or role you are given, even if that person is nothing like you. Being a good actor is being able to do that successfully and believably. My only point of concern, would be to make sure that everyone is given a fair opportunity to audition for those roles... as long as that's happening, then may the best actor win the part. Regardless of their sexuality.

[@tahliaann26]

As an Australian myself, I can always always hear another Australian accent peek through when they play “American’s” I knew smitty’s character was Aussie before even looking it up, I could hear it

[@vernonrabbetts]

Andrew Garfield, his mother, his father, his wife, his captain, Smitty amongst others were all non-American actors. For a film about an American story in WWII there's a lot of non-American talent on screen.

[@elizabethshow5105]

This gentlemen, is just one of the reasons they still call them the “ Greatest Generation”… And yes, this is a true story.

[@12floz67]

They absolutely were. 🍻

[@arkikali5632]

The thing with his dad and the letter. The dad served in WWI with General Musgrave, who was then his captain / company commander. But when Desmond's trial is going on in WWII, Musgrave is the War Services Commander. Or so he signed the letter. So that was how the daddy came in clutch.

[@BSUSwim4Gold]

Thank God you explained this pretty obvious information to these idiots!

[@arkikali5632]

@@BSUSwim4Gold Heh. I've seen a lot of reactors miss the connection. I'm sure there's a lot they have to keep track of aside from just the movie, plus other people commenting while you're trying to watch.

[@Dannydarko27]

Did Kyle say Desmond having the outburst of anger in his cell "pathetic" Either theres something missing cause of the edit, or dudes never seen someone be failed by the system they signed up to uphold. Des got the iron will heroes are made of, he chose to stick to his beliefs. Unless he was saying the military locking him was was the pathetic play, then I understand completely

[@that.ll_do_pig]

I'm really hoping he meant being placed in there is what was pathetic and not his reaction

[@naughty.r0bot]

Desmond Doss is Steve Rogers in the pre-Captain America training scene where he (unknowingly) jumps on a practice grenade to save his platoon when the so-called "tough guys" fled.

[@josephmorneau4339]

They can't "take the rule out". As they showed in the court martial case, the Constitution protects his right to not carry a gun.

[@gk5891]

There is a reason that we call the generation that grew up through the Great Depression and fought and won WWII the Greatest Generation.

[@wheredidthetimego8087]

[@dunbardunelm3924]

My respect for him definitely peaked, wowzer- brilliant job.

[@gibbletronic]

Desmond Doss was a giant among men. Any culture which pokes fun at those with deep convictions loses men of this caliber.

[@-NOCAP-]

By far my favorite WW2 Film. Actually my favorite gun era war film. The fact that it's a true story adds so much value to it for me.

[@scottdarden3091]

The tunnels enabled them to avoid the navy guns

[@arilee856]

Not know vegan strength. It’s God. Y’all missed the whole point

[@rescuetweak]

The actual translation in the Bible is “you shall not murder“ often translated “you shall not kill” in modern translations. The reason we know it is murder that is addressed it’s because there are times when men are commanded by God to kill many places in the Bible. That takes nothing away from Desmond’s Believe and absolutely Godly bravery. He behaved as closely as he could to what he believed Christ would do.

[@rescuetweak]

You guys did a really good reaction, except that you continually to took God’s name in vain. The entire movie was about his unshakable respect for Jesus and his word. You guys breaking the third commandment over and over again was hard to stomach. It would’ve been better if he just used a bunch of regular cuss words because that’s just silly kind of kid stuff.

[@dunbardunelm3924]

@@rescuetweak Thanks for saying this as I like to read comments before watching videos. Will give it a miss as my tender ears cannot cope. Yes I sin but..

[@LoryLilyBomber]

I’m pretty sure it wasn’t actually about what God would do or what Jesus would do-because Christians know no one can measure up to that-rather, it’s about what God has called you to do or become. That’s why Desmond doesn’t condemn war in itself. I think the way Desmond’s life played out showed him that he had the makings of an unrighteously violent person (the incident with his brother, and when he says he killed his father “in his heart,”) and so he consults with God and comes to the decision that he can never touch a gun. Then once he makes that promise, it becomes a matter of keeping his word to God, because his faith and love of God is stronger than his potentially violent nature. It’s a little bit like how the children of addicts often refuse to go near addictive substances because they know they’re more likely to have addictive tendencies. But imagine you had that tendency and so you made a promise to the MOST IMPORTANT PERSON in your life, the one that would be hurt the most by your becoming addicted to something, that you’ll not go near said substance ever. Your love for that person would hopefully help you resist temptation.

[@quentinmichel7581]

Kinda sad you guys dont seem to understand holding deep moral or spiritual convictions and would be willing to compromise. I don't hold Doss's convictions but I believe in and would fight to protect his right under the Constitution to hold those beliefs WITHOUT compromise.

[@ryomirelandil917]

Kinda irritating how clueless these guys were at some points.

[@warriorpitbull1170]

Agreed. I think it's not entirely their fault, though. Men like Desmond Doss weren't exactly 'rare' in those days. They understood and took their responsibilities as men very seriously which led to the instances of 4Fs committing suicide because they couldn't serve. Young men today it seems - to our own detriment - aren't instilled with the same level of honor as they were just 50 years ago. These boys made references to Desmond that irritated the EFF out of me but I think the blame for that lies in their ignorance and youth - as well as the failures of today's society to bolster the value of men like Desmond Doss. At one point one of them mentioned in jest that this movie was an advertisement for veganism - no, it's a monument for honorable men that possess the courage and commitment to hold to their principles and to do what's right in the face of annihilation.

[@MrfuckinBeilke]

Fun Facts: He got married after the war, not during. & while being extracted from the ridge on the stretcher he was shot by a sniper rendering his arm permanently disabled.

[@PowerDiva]

Nothing fun about that

[@mikalero]

Desmond married Dorothy in August of 1942. He had enlisted in April of that year.

[@darylroughley4846]

After 45 minutes, you still have not acknowledged he was awarded the Medal of Honour, the highest recognition awarded by the President himself.

[@cbobwhite5768]

This is HIS true story.

[@micheletrainor1601]

It might interest you to know that Desmond Doss had tuberculosis at the time of hacksaw ridge so he had to stiffle his coughing so as not to give away his location while finding injured soldiers he was diagnosed while in the V.A hospital and lost a lung to it. It took nearly 9hours to find his bible and his brothers in arms would not rest till they found it other battalions joined in the search because of what he did for them all. I highly recommend his autobiography as its truly incredible as such an amazing man.

[@iKvetch558]

If I was going to recommend anything else for you folks to react to, I would probably say Band of Brothers or The Pacific...at least if we are staying with World War 2. As others have noted, in a lot of ways the true story of Desmond Doss was toned down to make it more believable. However, there was one thing that was changed that you might want to know about. Doss and his unit had actually taken part in two previous Pacific island invasions before they got to Okinawa, and Doss had actually been decorated with the Bronze Star for Valor in both, so Desmond was already a well respected member of the unit before Hacksaw Ridge. You can understand why they decided to compress the story entirely to the Okinawa campaign to keep the story easier to understand. Some of the other changes they made are also understandable, such as they amped up the drama of the trial a lot, and the situation where he leaves his wife at the altar while he sits in a cell is not quite the way that happened. Also, in reality Hacksaw Ridge was out of range of naval gunfire...the Japanese chose the location in part to be safe from the fire of the really big guns on the battleships. The History vs Hollywood article on this movie is pretty good, and covers most the of the stuff that they changed or were mistaken about. I strongly recommend checking out History vs Hollywood for after you watch movies based on real history. They are usually the best place to get solid information about historical inaccuracies in a very easy to understand format, when they have an article posted about the film in question.✌✌

[@warriorpitbull1170]

15:35 He didn't hit his head too hard. Desmond has a sense of honor and integrity and the courage to do what's right because he's committed to his principles.

[@chuckcarles8288]

I was a Navy Hospital Corpsman (Medic) in Vietnam (3 Tours). I had 4months of basic medical training and two months of combat medical training when I was assigned to the Marines. The army medical training is similar. They don't just say you're a medic. There are not enough men that volunteer to be a medic. Tests are taken while you are in training. If your test shows an aptitude for medicine, then they ask you to volunteer or just send you to school to be a medic. If you are not good at it they send you back to infantry. Most medics that have been in combat can do the job as well as or better than some doctors or nurses. According to the Geneva Conventions medics are not to carry offensive weapons. I never carried a weapon. During times not in combat the medic is supposed give first aid lessons to his whole platoon frequently. So, anyone can take over basic first aid if the medic is killed. They can carry a pistol for their own protection and the protection of the one they are working on. Those two medics in the same fox hole should never be close to each other during combat (That’s one of the first things you learn). One of my tours in Vietnam I was on a ship on the Co Chien River in the Mekong Delta. Me and another corpsman were the only medical personnel on board. Being the only medical person onboard I did everything medical. If you were on a ship or with the Marines, you were called Doc. We were taught that during combat conditions we were to be on opposite ends of the ship. The 2 corpsmen we replaced were together during a fire fight and they both got killed. You never remember all the ones that you have treated but you never forget the ones you can’t save.

I think that's because it was against the Soviet Union (which is Russia Japan etc...)

[@charlesphillips7822]

The reason Japanese were able to survive all that bombing. Their underground bunkers were shovel levels deep. On the lower levels they're sleeping quarters, ammo bunkers and eating quarters. Little did they know the cliff they were climbing up had all sorts had tunnels running all through it with several levels. If they knew it was there all they'd have to do was drill straight into the cliff about halfway. You would have got them out of there.you would hit their primary living quarters.

So with Military Service, you have the Constitutional Right to refuse to bear Arms against another man in service to your country. It’s what’s called being a conscientious objector. Many Medics and Military Chaplains are conscientious objectors. The Government and Military are Subservient to the US Constitution, and thus cannot Compel any man to violate their convictions, including taking another life, nor can anyone be refused voluntary military service unless they are found physically or mentally unfit for Service.

Why are you trying to downplay what he did he was a legend

[@michaelpalmer7954]

We are all going to die. If you look from Genesis to Revelation God' s plan is to save people from the demonic influences of the Devil. Genesis 3:1-15 reveals what occurred in the Garden of Eden to bring about the Spiritual Battle. "And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: 15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel." The first prophecy of which there are hundreds in the Old and New Testament, is here in verse 15... thy seed and her seed;." A woman does not have a seed. That comes from the man. This is a prophecy fulfilled in the virgin birth of The Son of God, Jesus Christ. Isaiah 7:14 and Luke 1:34-36. There are still dozens of prophecies to be fulfilled. Time is running out. God is positioning the Nations for the last great Battle of Armageddon. But it will be 7 years of Hell for Billions of the ungodly, and those who reject the free gift of Eternal Life that Jesus Christ offered with His death on the cross. The Resurrection shows that the Son of God and Second Adam, came from Heaven to regain what the first Adam lost in the Garden of Eden. Believe on Jesus Christ and what He did . He takes the sentence of the lawbreakers penalty because of His love for each and every one of us. John 3:16-17...

Even with how small it is, I looked at a good 30-50 different sizes of bibles at the store, judging by how thick it is, Desmond’s Bible in the movie is definitely a full Canonical Bible, likely the KJV, with all 66 books from Genesis to Revelation. That particular size of Bible is very expensive lol, like $40+ easily plus shipping online. I’m content though with having my full sized Good News Bible I got for free, and this shirt pocket NIV New Testament 😂

Desmond accomplished what he did through his faith in Jesus Christ. What he accomplished was miraculous and not through his own ability. You can put proof before people's faces and they still won't believe because seeing is not believing which is why the scripture states "without faith it's impossible to please God." God wants your heart. ... that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
