Hacksaw Ridge, Okinawa Japan 2017

While visiting with Anna Kristen and Kyle Gadoury, I wanted to visit the site of one of my favorite war movies, Hacksaw Ridge. Anna Kristen, Viviana, Lucien and I wandered around the ruins, took pictures, ate ice cream after we were finished and had a wonderful time. The ridge itself was completely overgrown with vegetation and difficult to imagine as it must have been during WWII. However, many of the cave entrances are still there but are blocked off to prevent entrance. I was a little surprised that the descriptions of the battle showed pictures from the movie's actor that played Desmond Doss instead of an actual picture of Desmond Doss.
