Date Posted: Tuesday, December 25, 11:46:11pm In reply to: LISA 's message, "Re: Joyeux Noël" on Tuesday, December 25, 10:11:43am FORGET YOUR BICKERING AND CRUEDNESS, ALTHOUGH BANTER IS WELCOMED. IN THE OWN WORDS OF THESE GUYS - DONT FIGHT ANYMORE. GIVE PEACE A CHANCE. "Altogether we had a great day with our enemies, and parted with much hand-shaking and mutual goodwill." Percy Jones of the Queen's Westminster Regiment. "It was a curious scene - a lovely moonlit (Christmas) night, the German trenches with small lights on them, and the men on both sides gathered in groups on the parapets. It is weird to think that tomorrow night we shall be at it again. If one gets through this show it will be a Christmas time to live in one's memory." Captain R Armes of the 1st North Staffordshire regiment. "It was absolutely astounding, and if I had seen it on a cinematograph film I should have sworn that it was faked." Lieutenant Sir Edward Hulse, 2nd Scots Guards. "What a sight; little groups of Germans and British extending along the length of our front. Out of the darkness we could hear the laughter and see lighted matches. Where they couldn't talk the language, they made themselves understood by signs, and everyone seemed to be getting on nicely. Here we were laughing and chatting to men whom only a few hours before we were trying to kill " Corporal John Ferguson of the Seaforth Highlanders. PLEASE SHOW RESPECT IN ANY REPLIES: MERRY CRIMBO - YOU ALL. PS: ODE TO JOY - AND PEACE AND UNDERSTANDING. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
