Mention the various ways in which the British and the German soldiers become friends and find things in common at Christmas.

The British and German soldiers were on the opposite side of the war but they were all humans at the end of the day. They put down weapons for a day and came together to celebrate Christmas as friends. They shared stories and food, played games together and sang carols in their trenches at night. Soldiers on both sides despised the war and were anxious to go back home.
