World War 1, Part 3: The Christmas Truce of 1914

In the concluding episode of our mini-series on WW1, we're talking about one of those rare times in history when goodwill and humanity triumphed in a place where you'd least expect to find it. In this case, the brutal trenches of the western front. On that first Christmas, men on both sides spontaneously gave up the fighting for one day.

Thanks to Gregor Quendel for the string arrangement of "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" and Casonika for the piano carols.
