Speaking of the Christmas Truce of 1914,

 

A great song describing Christmas 1914 "in the trenches" and  having a group of WW1 German veterans visit his show some 75 years afterwards just to hear this song Christmas in the Trenches written and performed by John McCutcheon. Caution: It might get a little dusty.

  1. It's a story I've heard before and a good one at that. You're also right about the dust.

  4. Thanks. Least we forget. Yes, a tear in the eye. I have visited the WWI trenches, and the Cemeteries.
