I heard Doss speak and read his biography. He was pretty clear about the abuse he took.
He did say that the outright abuse ended after he received his formal medic training and started taking part in tactical exercises and showed he could physically keep up with the others and could treat their wounds. But he said he was still largely isolated from the others. Ironically, given the direction this thread has taken, one of the first to truly befriend him was a Roman Catholic soldier.
He says he truly became accepted once they actually got into combat and he really started proving his worth. And after the events at Hacksaw Ridge, when he was in the hospital, he mentioned he’d lost the Bible his wife had given him. When word got back to his company, the men scoured the area until they found it.
Incidentally, he said that the blows, the insults and the isolation was not the worst thing that happened to him. He said the most painful thing during all the time he was being harassed was to hear the other men use the name Jesus Christ as an exclamation and say G— D-—.
I missed that part. Thanks for pointing it out to me.
