100 years ago today, an event that scared the generals shitless
This re-enactment from "Oh What A Lovely War" gives an idea of what happened on the day that the generals feared their men would fight no more. A fear so great that some generals did order artillery shelling to break up the fraternizing. They need not have feared for after Christmas, both sides went back to killing each other with the same industrial zeal as before. For almost 4 more years.
And 43 years after this came out we are no closer to what John wanted.
