And today we're all brothers Tonight we're all friends A moment of peace in a war that never ends Today we're all brothers We drink and unite Now Christmas has arrived and the snow turns the ground white Hear carols from the trenches We sing O Holy Night Our guns laid to rest among snowflakes A Christmas in the trenches A Christmas on the front far from home

I had visited that very location, while on shore leave, from my ship, during my only time as a Fleet Sailor, in the Navy. There was a historian giving us accounts, taken from the diaries of soldiers, from both sides, after the war. Reminds me, us, that it, warfare, is mankinds ULTIMATE, STUPID FOLLY!!!!
