Description
The Christmas Truce of 1914
During World War I, in December 1914, something incredible happened. Soldiers from both sides—British and German—were fighting in the trenches. But on Christmas Eve, they stopped. German soldiers started singing carols, and the British joined in. The next morning, soldiers came out of the trenches, unarmed, and shook hands. They exchanged small gifts, like chocolate and cigarettes, and even played a game of football.
For one day, enemies became friends. The Christmas Truce showed that even in war, humanity can shine through.
