Christmas 1914

from Plutonium Alley by Mike Harding

about

The story is true. The war stopped for a brief few days that Christmas and a lot of soldiers discovered what the politicians hadn’t wanted them to discover, that they were fighting other ordinary men who like themselves were only pawns in the game. A notice was posted after the event forbidding any fraternisation with enemy troops and an unkown Tommy scrawled on the bottom of one notice: “You can buy my body but you can’t buy my soul.”
