YouTube and The Incredible Journey: "Desmond Doss made a name for himself - by saving lives. He refused to bear arms or carry a weapon - in the midst of constant enemy fire. He was unwilling to take a life or even so much as touch a weapon. He did however say that he would be proud to serve his country as a medic if they would let him. He was the conscientious objector who chose to fight – fight in a way that would help people. He had the wild idea that he could serve his country at war and also obey the command: 'Thou shalt not kill.' This remembrance day, to learn more, watch our program 'The Hero of Hacksaw Ridge: Desmond Doss.'"
