The Day the Soldiers Stopped Fighting

My grandfather used to tell us kids this story around the holidays. He is gone now and was a combat engineer in WWI, and I think he would like it if I post this. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone!
Now I am leaving to see my parents in St. Louis, which is a two hour drive. Woot!

I remember this story, and it is a true story. Now, if we could all get along on this tiny blue ball....

That is an awesome story. I have printed it out for use with my home schooling lessons on American History.
