How Did Kakashi Get His Sharingan?

Kakashi gets his famous eye when Obito Uchiha offers his own during a childhood mission.

How did Kakashi get his Sharingan? Obito gave it to him while he lay dying during a mission. Half of his body was crushed, so Obito suggested that Rin surgically transplant his surviving eye he into Kakashi.

Kakashi was a member of Minato’s ninja team, alongside Obito Uchiha and Rin Nohora. Rin was abducted by Stone Village Ninja, and Obito set out to save her alone since Kakashi wanted to stick to the mission.

Eventually, Kakashi realized it was wrong to abandon his squadmates and returned to back Obito up. A stone ninja used earth style to collapse the cave around them, Obito pushing Kakashi out of the way to save his life and sacrifice his own.
