All Is Calm: The Christmas Truce of 1914
Out of the violence came a silence…and then a song.
A remarkable true story from almost a century ago brings the holiday spirit into the 21st century. On December 24, 1914, when the Allied Forces and German soldiers at the Western Front lay down their arms for a Christmas Day truce, no one could have imagined that these two enemy forces would celebrate the day together with camaraderie, music, and peace.
