text: Lisa, I hear you! There much to the Desmond Doss story that can be gleaned from the documentary available on Youtube - The documentary focus is on the Desmond Doss, his faith, the person... his family, the people he served with and the people he saved. Yes you can tell the story without yuck. I believe the story is actually better told in this instance because it celebrates faith with nonviolence as a fruit of his faith. Ok... spoiler alert... the family had a copy of the 10 Commandments on the wall. Wee lad Desmond learning to read on the commandments etches --- Thou shalt not kill in his heart. The rest of his life is about him staying obedient to the Commandments and not putting anyone ahead of the Lord.... yeah, its ok to do the documentary. No flash back footage at all. Its the guys that he served with telling how hard they made it for him and -- how his faith changed them... even today.
