Send all the history buffs in your family, this thoughtful and reflective Christmas Card that celebrates the Christmas truce of 1914, when some British and German soldiers observed a temporary ceasefire to celebrate Christmas Day. They met in no man's land to sing carols, exchange gifts, play football, and bury their dead. It was a short-lived peace in the midst of immense devastation and destruction. This card shows two soldiers, sat in a trench, opening gifts and letters from home, in front of a small Christmas tree, while soldiers play football in the background.
