Before he faced combat on the front lines, Desmond Doss — a World War II medic who refused to carry a weapon because of his religious beliefs — had to face his fellow soldiers. A new clip from Hacksaw Ridge shows how some of Doss’s fellow troops bullied him and called him a “coward” for refusing to kill or fight back.

Here is the clip:

The film opens across North America two weeks from today, on November 4.

Update: A second clip, of Doss rescuing a sergeant who had dismissed him because of his refusal to carry a gun, has popped up online too:
