Dig & Dig Deep - Paperback

The determination of youth, tempered in the fires of experience, gives life to wisdom, and makes us capable of altering the course of human history. Dig & Dig Deep is the compelling narrative of one embattled teenager whom destiny protected, and the path he walked to keep a battlefield pledge alive. From a small town in upstate NY to the fields of Bastogne and back again, Private Richard "Dick" Arnold reconstructs his gruelling journey as a front line combat infantry foot soldier and radio operator on his tour of duty in the European theatre. From basic training to the liberation of Buchenwald, he shares his observations on human nature and our capacity for unimaginable cruelty...and great compassion.
