"we could've been friends if it wasn't for this damn uniform" - a wise man

[@Carter_C727]

Exactly 💯

"we aren't enemies, politics are."

No more war in Europe! My Great Grand Father fought in World War 1. We must stand united! Against any threat for us. Greetings to you all from Austria. Max

Thanks for the comment Max! ❤

Brings me to tears every time. This goes to show that even during times of great peril and bloodshed, light may still shine through even the darkest of clouds.

Those 2 people who put their hands up were very brave

[@hiddenfromhistory100]

My grandfather was there, with the Canadian 4th Division. Later his life was saved by a German soldier. Grandpa says the fraternization happened all the time, when the officers weren't looking. This is how we stop wars. It's up to the soldiers to say no.

Even during the toughest time, kindness can seek into those who need and can be enjoy by everyone forever

They were so Young!!!!

When religion brings people together, the only thing that seperates them is their uniforms.

[@screamingcat_2048]

It’s sad how the people who have killed each other could’ve been best friends. But hey, hopefully the killing stopped.

[@bonzinga3380]

its sad to know that all of them probably were dead by the time the war stopped...

[@andreafrey1604]

The problem are for every war the politicians and Profit of the people behind on both sides,who must not fight and suffer,and get killed.If will the normal people decide,it would never more happen a war.

[@seanwalsh5717]

These men had to be transferred to another front because they didn't want to kill the people they met. Virtually none of these men were still alive two years later.

[@ThatEnglishGuy21]

War is politicians talking & young men dying

[@forresttowns4995]

The saddest part of war has to be that most of those doing the fighting and dying are little more than kids barely into their twenties. Such a waste of potential and life.

[@furicd446]

Merci pour cet extrait de Joyeux Noël. Un très beau film ❤. J'ai le 0:53 plus profond respect pour tous ces hommes qui ont bravé tout les interdits. Une journée pour oublier cette guerre.

[@SkyBoundEditz]

The definiton of the "Holy Spirit" This also shows that they didnt want to fight eachother they just wanted to fight for their country.

[@robertodrexler9045]

Sehr gut gemacht. Mir kommt immer eine Träne….

[@alistairthompson8311]

[@user-vh7ys7hp1w]

even at the worst place ever at his worst time ever... we still can find some GOOD in it

[@jorgevaccari2374]

Included the military of others country tried for years to denied this happened in 1914 Christmas. But lucky the true won and everybody knew this story was real

[@billuk1413]

Bet the elites then and now hated that moment.

[@Carter_C727]

Yeha

[@sith545]

This real event goes show that humanity strives for anything other than hatred, I like to think that the soldiers who did this wanted to end the war right there, and if they could’ve, both sides of men would’ve laid down their rifles.

[@welmer2890]

Two world wars between brothers never never again

Only one time happened this situation. Never more. Pope J. P. II tried to do the same thing with war in centre europe. But he failed The soldiers continue with the war. In this case Hate could more than love

[@deanboardman2342]

Humans have finally mastered the art of war and slaughtering each other for nothing. Imagine what we could achieve if we ALL worked together 😢
