During training, Desmond Doss, the legendary medic and Medal of Honor recipient, shocked his unit by stepping over his commander’s authority to get water for his fellow soldiers. With his comrades suffering in the sweltering heat, Doss’s bold actions ensured they had the hydration they desperately needed.
