A Christmas story

[linguafranca]

During World War I, in the winter of 1914, on the battlefields of Flanders, one of the most unusual events in all of human history took place. The Germans had been in a fierce battle with the British and French. Both sides were dug in, safe in muddy, man-made trenches six to eight feet deep that seemed to stretch forever

Merry Christmas, may your trench not get mustard gassed.

There was a French film that came out this year about this odd moment in history. I really want to see it. It's called Joyeux Noel and has gotten nothing but good reviews.
