The year is 1914. The western fronts of WWI are a breeding ground of violence and bloodshed, and the battle continues, even as time creeps towards Christmas. Many weeks before the momentous holiday, leaders from each side stressed to their soldiers that there was to be no fraternization during the weeks before Christmas.
Even though rules were set out by both sides, soldiers from the both the German and British side agreed on a week long truce, the very week before Christmas day. The two sides played soccer, exchanged gifts, and formed friendships. This week will be forever known as the Christmas Truce.
But after the week had ended, war still strived to continue. The friendships that were formed were ended quickly in the firefights that followed the fun and games.
You are a soldier who has been in a trench for 3 long weeks, a soldier from either the German or British side. You have just heard of a truce that will last the entire week, maybe longer. You know that fighting will have to continue, but the truce might spark hope in you. You emerge from your trench, apprehensive. What will you do during the truce?
