But let’s see all the information in detail together.

Plot

Young Desmond Doss, raised in Lynchburg, Virginia, was raised a Seventh-day Adventist and has a firm belief in the commandment not to kill since he nearly accidentally killed his younger brother while they were wrestling. At the age of 23, Desmond helps a man who was injured while repairing his car by taking him to the hospital, where he meets Dorothy Schutte, a nurse. The two fall in love and Desmond confides in her that he wants to pursue a career in medicine. When World War II breaks out, Desmond plans to enlist to help people in need, but, as a conscientious objector, he wants to serve in the army as a military rescuer. His father Tom, a troubled veteran of World War I, is deeply irritated by his son’s decision. Before leaving for Fort Jackson, South Carolina, he asks Dorothy to marry him, and she agrees to marry him.

Doss, under the training of Sergeant Howell, excels in physical performance, but becomes an outcast among his fellow soldiers when he refuses to pick up a rifle and participate in Saturday drills. Howell and Captain Glover attempt to expel Doss on psychiatric grounds, but their superior refuses. The sergeant begins to torment Doss by subjecting him to grueling work, hoping to discourage him and make him voluntarily discharge. One night, Doss is brutally beaten by his fellow soldiers, but he refuses to identify his attackers and continues his training.
