dicksbro,

In the words of Art Garfunkel - what a wonderful world it would be! During the century in which our notion of war changed from the cavalry charge and fixed bayonet charges to the Exocet and the M1A2 Abrams tank, the fact that in 1914 some thousands of the men of the warring nations shook hands between their trenches strikes, to me, a powerful note. It is an appealing Christmas story of modern times.
