Bernardo F. Asuncion Poet Quatrain

Saving Seventy-Five Men

Saving seventy-five men
Was truly a noble act; 
Doing it without firing 
A gun brought a huge impact.

Hacksaw Ridge is a story
Of the medic Desmond Doss; 
He had played the greatest role
To prevent the death or loss.

Desmond Doss refused to kill
An antagonist soldier; 
Because of his personal 
Belief in God, the Father.

Desmond Doss suffered a left
Arm fracture from a bullet; 
At one point his body had 
Shrapnel's pieces he did get.

For his actions in Japan, 
An award he was given; 
It was conferred to him for 
Saving seventy-five men.
