True or False!
On December 25th, 1914 German and British forces had a brief
unofficial cessations of hostilities. Just after Midnight the sounds
of gunfire and artillery turned into Christmas Carols and by dawn
soldiers came out of the trenches (unarmed) and greeted the enemy by
saying "Merry Christmas". It is also said that they exchanged
gifts and play games with each other. The Christmas Truce of 1914
was perhaps, one of the last examples of the outdated notion of
chivalry between enemies in the age of industrial warfare (on such a
large scale).
