christmas truce ww1Here’s your heartfelt video of the day regarding the story of the Christmas Truce in WWI in 1914, in which a ceasefire took place along the Western Front.

On Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, many soldiers from both sides – as well as, to a lesser degree, from French units – independently ventured into no man’s land, where they mingled, exchanging food and souvenirs. As well as joint burial ceremonies, several meetings ended in carol-singing, or famously, games of football.

Like a wise old man once said, ‘War Is Over, If You Want It.’
