Wednesday, October 5, 2016 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon LUNDGREN: Great Somme battle occurred in 1916 Continued from page 3 withstand a bombardment so massive and intense that the low rumble of the guns could be heard across the Channel and all the way to London. When he returned home, Christopher and his friends took up their spades and dug an elaborate trench system of their own in his yard in Metolius Meadows. The spade-work, filling of sandbags and stringing of “barbed wire” was a whole lot like work. “I learned how hard it is to make a trench,” he said. That really brought home to him the enormous enter- prise that was the vast net- work of trenches that snaked from the English Channel to the Swiss border. Asked what motivated his willingness to work so hard to create a facsimile of what he’d seen in France, he said, “I don’t know. I just like dig- ging I guess.” And he’s been having fun building a potato gun and lob- bing taters into the trenches. On Sunday, he narrowly missed a Nugget correspon- dent, who hunkered down as a potato sailed overhead and landed with a thud in the adja- cent trench. But there’s something deeper than simple “fun” in digging in the dirt and shoot- ing off a potato gun going on with the Sisters youth. His bedroom is a mini-museum of Second World War, First World War, and Cold War artifacts. Some of the World War II artifacts came from his Dutch grandfather, who “barely survived the Hunger Winter” of 1944-45 during the German occupation. He is discovering how alive history can be when you dig in and put your hands on it — dirt and all. 39 photo by jim cornelius Christopher’s bedroom is a mini-museum of artifacts.
