FILM * La Battaglia Di Hacksaw Ridge: 'L'attacco dei giapponesi a Pearl Harbor mi colpì...' (Cit. 1)
" - DESMOND DOSS: L'attacco dei giapponesi a Pearl Harbor mi colpì profondamente. Tutti quelli che conoscevo volevano arruolarsi e io con loro. Due uomini della mia città dichiarati inabili si suicidarono perché non potevano servire. Beh, lavoravo in un'officina di guerra, avrei potuto farmi riformare, ma non sarebbe stato giusto. Non era giusto che altri combattessero e morissero mentre me ne stavo al sicuro, a casa. Dovevo farlo, signore. Ho l'energia e la passione per servire come medico, lì, proprio insieme agli altri, con uguali pericoli, solo che mentre gli altri perdono la vita, io gliela salverei. In un mondo così deciso ad autodristruggersi, non mi pare sia una cattiva idea volerlo rimettere un po' a posto. "
[ When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, I took it personal. Everyone I knew was on fire to join up, including me. There were two men in my hometown declared 4-F unfit, they killed themselves cause they couldn't serve. Why, I had a job in a defense plant and I could've taken a deferment, but that ain't right. It isn't right that other men should fight and die, that I would just be sitting at home safe. I need to serve. I got the energy and the passion to serve as a medic, right in the middle with the other guys. No less danger, just... while everybody else is taking life, I'm going to be saving it. With the world so set on tearing itself apart, it doesn't seem like such a bad thing to me to wanna put a little bit of it back together. ]
