The power of faith

Dawes, the male protagonist, an originally thin and young boy, did not want to be cowardly protected when the motherland was invaded by the enemy, he wanted to use his own power to protect the country. He said: I can't stay here while all of them go fight for me.

Because of various reasons for his teenage family and beliefs, he was unwilling to use a spear, unwilling to kill, and was pushed out by the officer and teammates. However, in the war, he saved more than 70 people with his own power. So amazing! He was at the time. I have been praying that God can save one more and one more. His contribution is greater than that of any soldier (said the superior). It is hard to imagine that a man without a gun can be so powerful. He owes his faith. He is not a coward. He is a real strong man and a brave man with faith in mind.

That’s what the movie said at the end: It’s wrong to interfere with the beliefs of others, no matter if you are in the army or what, when you hold beliefs, it’s not a joke, it’s you.

Just as what was told at the end of the film: I would say anyone is wrong to try to compromise somebody's conviction. I don't care it's the army or what it is. When you are on a conviction. That is not a joke . That's what you are.

The legend of Dawes reminds me of a word in the sparrow, only the motherland and faith cannot be disappointed. Therefore, stick to the faith and maintain what we love like Daus. mutual encouragement

    Without the blessing of real people and real things, you would really think that Mel Gibson is a sacred stick in the name of a false god. When the truth is unbelievable to a certain extent, you will think, how can it be more fake than the movie. But such an old-school movie about personal beliefs, silly and innocent stories, still seem to be moving. The movie is a two-stage structure of "Full Metal Shell". After a long period of calm and struggle, it suddenly enters the hell mode of tearing the devil.

Hacksaw Ridge quotes

  • Sgt Howell: This is a personal gift from the United States government to each and every one of you. A standard issue U.S. rifle, caliber .30, M1, a clip-fed, shoulder-fired, semi-automatic weapon designed to bring death and destruction to the enemy. This is to be your lover, your mistress, your concubine. Perhaps the only thing in life you will ever truly love. Fellas, let's dance.

    [the privates begin grabbing weapons]

    Sgt Howell: Grab a girl. Don't point your gun forward. I do not want to be shot today. No matter how much you are tempted. Place the weapon by your side. Pay attention.

    [Doss is the only one who has not picked up a rifle]

    Sgt Howell: Problem, Private Corn Stalk? Is there not one in your size or is it the color that is the issue?

    Desmond Doss: No, Sarge. I was... I was told I don't have to carry a weapon.

    Sgt Howell: Come again? Step forward, Private. I can't be hearing this right.

    Desmond Doss: Well, I'm sorry, Sergeant. I can't touch a gun.

    Captain Glover: What exactly is the problem?

    Desmond Doss: No problem, just a mistake, sir. I told the Army when I joined up.

    Captain Glover: That's not possible. Do you know why that's not possible, Private?

    Desmond Doss: No, sir.

    Captain Glover: Because the United States Army does not make mistakes. So if there's a problem, you must be that problem.

    Desmond Doss: I was just never supposed to be sent to a rifle company.

    Sgt Howell: He's a C.O., sir.

    Captain Glover: You're a conscientious objector, and you joined the Army?

    Desmond Doss: Well, no, sir, I'm a conscientious cooperator.

    Captain Glover: [bemused] Are you screwing with me, Doss?

    Desmond Doss: No. No, sir. I volunteered. I ain't got no problem with wearing my uniform, or saluting the flag and doing my duty. It's just carrying a gun and the taking of human life.

    Captain Glover: You don't kill? That's all?

    Desmond Doss: That's all. Yes, sir, that's all.

    Captain Glover: You know quite a bit of killing does occur in a war?

    Desmond Doss: Yes, sir.

    Captain Glover: I mean, that is the essential nature of war.

    Desmond Doss: Yes, sir.

    Captain Glover: All right. Do you have any other requirements of the United States Army? Is there anything else we can do to ensure that you have a comfortable stay here with us?

    Sgt Howell: He doesn't want to work on Saturdays, sir.

    Desmond Doss: Well, Saturdays... I'm a Seventh-Day Adventist. So, Saturday is my Sabbath, so I'm not allowed to work then.

    Captain Glover: I don't think that poses a problem, do you, Sergeant? We shall simply ask the enemy not to invade on the Sabbath, 'cause Private Doss here is at prayer. All right. Now we got that clear. Now let me tell you my requirements. They're not as complicated as yours. They're very simple. As long as you're in this company, under my command, you will obey my orders. Period. If you can't do it here, I can't trust you to do it in battle. I'm putting you in for a Section 8, psychiatric discharge. Dismissed.

  • Sgt Howell: Gentlemen! I want you to meet Private Desmond Doss. Apparently, Private Doss does not believe in violence. He does not practice violence. He will not even deign to touch a weapon. You see, Private Doss is a conscientious objector. So I plead with you, do not look to him to save you on the battlefield, because he will undoubtedly be too busy wrestling with his conscience to assist.

    Desmond Doss: Sarge, that's not true...

    Sgt Howell: PRIVATE, AS YOU WERE! Now I realize that some of you might have strong feelings about this. It is what we men fight for. To defend our rights, and to protect our women and children. Even if Private Doss' beliefs might cause women and children to die. So I will expect everyone in this company to give Private Doss the full measure of respect he is due for the short time that he will be with us.
