Best WW2 Pacific War Movie Ever Made

Rating: 10/10 (13 December 2016)

My Father was there! Received the Bronze Star, He was a surgical technician( Think M.A.S.H. unit) who was operating on the wounded who were lowered and brought in from the Ridge,as shown in the movie. In the divisional 77th history book I have from 1948 it was called "the escarpment" not Hacksaw Ridge, and my Dad keep a personal handwritten blood dripped, mud splattered diary of every casualty he helped assist operating on. Many casualties from the 302nd Infantry, he was with the 306th, but one of his entries was another medal of Honor winner who received it posthumously after dying from his wounds. The 77th served and fought on Guam, Leyte and Okinawa which was the second biggest invasion after D-Day in Normandy. He proudly lived til 1983 1nd I have all of his medals
