A medic helped injured soldiers without regard for which side they fought for, as he saw all people as equal in their humanity regardless of the conflict. His patriotism came from a desire to help his fellow man, not from the conflict itself, as he valued all human life equally rather than prioritizing some over others.

His passion for his nation and his fellow citizens had nothing to do with this.
He was as patriotic as the most
devoted American soldier, without a doubt. But, as he focused on helping the injured, he looked beyond the conflict and even the global conflict. He saw people—all of God's creatures and children—who were created of flesh and blood. The life of one guy shouldn't have been valued higher than the life of another.
