I recently watched a movie called "Blood War Hacksaw Ridge", a war movie of World War II, which is based on a real story, which makes me admire the story, the protagonist-Desmond Dawes! After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the United States declared war on Japan. The whole country was immersed in a frenzy of revenge. The young people in the small town have joined the army, and the young people are all on the battlefield. He also wants to join the army. Finally, he can get his wish. After joining the army, he proposes to "not touch the weapon", but as a soldier, the weapon is life. He refuses "life" at the door, and he can imagine how much pressure he will be under. For a long period of time, he was marked as a "Rejector". Excluded and ridiculed by the chief and his comrades. In the end, he was sent to a special camp to participate in labor. During this period, he was not allowed to go to church on weekends, and he was not allowed to meet with his newlyweds. In the end, he was unable to get married. In the army, he was hesitant to touch his weapon. The army wanted to expel him, so he was sent to a military court, but his father was a veteran of World War I and he was a comrade-in-arms with the current general. In the court, his father sent a letter to the general through his comrade-in-arms relationship. In the final verdict, it was the same letter, which changed his fate. After constant complaints, the army could not find a reason to return him to his place of origin, and in the end he was determined to be a "1-AO" level objector. This means that he can not participate in any battles, and only needs to do non-combat support work. In the end, as a military doctor, he went to the hell-like Okinawa battlefield... On the battlefield, he always treated the wounded soldiers in an attitude of being able to save one. But under normal circumstances, doctors on the battlefield can only save people selectively according to the severity of the injury. For a wounded soldier, if the military doctor gave him some morphine, it meant that he would wait for death. In the Battle of Okinawa, such examples abound. But he was different. There was a soldier whose legs were blown off and he was shot in the chest. When other military doctors had given up on him, Desmond Dawes dragged him to the rear, and in the end he survived and lived to be 72 years old. In addition, in order to rescue an officer, Desmond also battled wits and courage with the Japanese in the tunnel. In the end, he saved 75 people in this battle. The wounded were sent down the cliff one by one. As the only medical soldier in the company, Desmond Dawes was admired like a savior. In the subsequent battles, he rushed to the front line regardless of personal safety and once again saved the lives of countless soldiers. On November 1, 1945, President Truman personally wore him the highest honor of the US military-the Medal of Honor. This is also the first "rejector" in history to wear the medal. On March 23, 2006, Desmond Dawes passed away. In this true story, I deeply felt the significance of a military doctor’s respect for life, and it also made me understand a truth, to respect life!
