But his story doesn't end in 1945. There have been many other battles and victories for the man known as the unlikeliest hero, and this book tells those stories.
From an accident-prone childhood to World War II gallantry, the tragic loss of his first wife, Dorothy, and his battles with deafness and cancer, Desmond Doss has lived a life of unsurpassed devotion. Devotion to his country, his convictions, and his God.
