There was a guy on my freshman hall named Mike Hunt.  Don't recall if he was pre-med or not.

If you don't know who Desmond Doss is, I strongly urge you to find out.

Ended up watching hacksaw ridge last night, wow, what an amazing human.

I know there are historical inaccuracies like any film, but the level of courage, determination and outright selflessness that doss displayed was absolutely incredible.

One of the inaccuracies in the film though is that they UNDER REPRESENTED what he did because it did not play as believable!!

Did the real Desmond Doss get shot by a Japanese sniper?

Yes. Director Mel Gibson decided to leave this out of the movie because he felt audiences would find the heroic circumstances under which it happened too hard to believe, especially after Desmond had just taken the blunt of a grenade blast to save his fellow soldiers. After the grenade left him with 17 pieces of shrapnel stuck in him, Desmond waited for five hours until fellow soldier Ralph Baker was able to reach him. Baker, along with a few other men, carried Desmond on a litter (stretcher) through an intense enemy tank attack. As they were carrying him, he saw a guy on the ground badly wounded. Desmond rolled off the stretcher and crawled over to patch the man up. Desmond gave up his stretcher to the man, but while waiting for help to come back, he was wounded again, this time by a sniper's bullet that shattered his left arm. He fashioned a splint out of a rifle stock and crawled the remaining 300 yards under fire, eventually reaching the safety of an aid station. He was transported to the hospital ship Mercy. -The Conscientious Objector Documentary
