Christmas Truce, 1914 

"we could've been friends if it wasn't for this damn uniform" - a wise man

Brings me to tears every time. This goes to show that even during times of great peril and bloodshed, light may still shine through even the darkest of clouds.

"we aren't enemies, politics are."

No more war in Europe! My Great Grand Father fought in World War 1. We must stand united! Against any threat for us. Greetings to you all from Austria. Max

Even during the toughest time, kindness can seek into those who need and can be enjoy by everyone forever

My grandfather was there, with the Canadian 4th Division. Later his life was saved by a German soldier. Grandpa says the fraternization happened all the time, when the officers weren't looking. This is how we stop wars. It's up to the soldiers to say no.

They were so Young!!!!

When religion brings people together, the only thing that seperates them is their uniforms.

The saddest part of war has to be that most of those doing the fighting and dying are little more than kids barely into their twenties. Such a waste of potential and life.

It’s sad how the people who have killed each other could’ve been best friends. But hey, hopefully the killing stopped.

War is politicians talking & young men dying

These men had to be transferred to another front because they didn't want to kill the people they met. Virtually none of these men were still alive two years later.

Merci pour cet extrait de Joyeux Noël. Un très beau film ❤. J'ai le 0:53 plus profond respect pour tous ces hommes qui ont bravé tout les interdits. Une journée pour oublier cette guerre.

Bet the elites then and now hated that moment.

The definiton of the "Holy Spirit" This also shows that they didnt want to fight eachother they just wanted to fight for their country.

even at the worst place ever at his worst time ever... we still can find some GOOD in it

Sehr gut gemacht. Mir kommt immer eine Träne….

Two world wars between brothers never never again

Included the military of others country tried for years to denied this happened in 1914 Christmas. But lucky the true won and everybody knew this story was real

This real event goes show that humanity strives for anything other than hatred, I like to think that the soldiers who did this wanted to end the war right there, and if they could’ve, both sides of men would’ve laid down their rifles.

The Christmas Trust the best time in ww1

Humans have finally mastered the art of war and slaughtering each other for nothing. Imagine what we could achieve if we ALL worked together 😢

The fact that wars start by old men.

Starring is carrying and it is Christmas

Only one time happened this situation. Never more. Pope J. P. II tried to do the same thing with war in centre europe. But he failed The soldiers continue with the war. In this case Hate could more than love

And then the blew the sh!t out of each other.
