[00:00:00]This is the true story of Desmond Doss.

[00:00:03]In 1945, American soldiers attacked Hacksaw Ridge in Okinawa, Japan. Machine guns fired from every direction. Explosions shook the battlefield. Soldiers were falling everywhere.

[00:00:16]But one man stayed behind.

[00:00:19]Desmond Doss was a combat medic who refused to carry a weapon because of his beliefs.

[00:00:24]Yet, while others retreated, he ran back into enemy fire. One by one, he carried wounded soldiers to the edge of a 400-foot cliff and lowered them down with a rope. Every time he saved someone, he whispered, "Lord, help me get one more."

[00:00:42]All night long, he kept going.

[00:00:45]By sunrise, Desmond Doss [music] had saved around 75 soldiers without firing a single bullet.

[00:00:53]He later became the first conscientious objector in American history to receive the Medal of Honor.
