It's this most wonderful time of the year! Discover the magic of Christmas through this collection of resources featuring a heart-warming wartime story
The 25 December 1914 Christmas truce was a unique day of camaraderie and peace between opposing armies during the First World War. It is recorded that German and British troops in some trench lines, put down their weapons on Christmas Day and greeted one another in no-mans-land. Here they shook hands, swapped stories where language barriers permitted and shared photographys and whatever small luxuries they had with them. It is even reported that a friendly game of football was shared between the two opposing sides.
