98 Japanese Rushed His Tent — He Gave Them a Different Kind of Surgery

#WW2History #MedalOfHonor #PacificWar At dawn on July 7, 1944, during the Battle of Saipan, a medical tent became the deadliest position on the island. This video tells the true World War II story of Captain Benjamin Salomon, a U.S. Army dentist who violated every rule of war to protect his wounded patients. When a massive Japanese banzai charge overran American lines, Salomon ordered his medical staff to evacuate the wounded—then stayed behind alone. Armed with a rifle and later a machine gun, Salomon fought for hours while bleeding from dozens of wounds. When American forces retook the position, they found his body slumped over the gun, surrounded by 98 fallen Japanese soldiers. His actions saved dozens of lives but sparked a decades-long debate: could a medical officer who took up arms still be honored as a hero? This documentary explores the Battle of Saipan, the Geneva Convention, and the extraordinary courage that led to Salomon receiving the Medal of Honor 58 years later. It’s a story of sacrifice, moral conflict, and forgotten heroism. If you value true WWII hero stories, Pacific War history, and acts of courage beyond doctrine, this is essential viewing. 👉 LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and TURN ON NOTIFICATIONS for more deeply researched WWII documentaries.
