Wars, shooting, and Christmas.........?

I have heard and read that during various wars, men fighting men, on Christmas eve the men laid down their arms, and stopped shooting at each other for that 'sacred time'. And after Christmas was over, they started fighting again. Have you known about this??

Yes, I have also heard about this. I am not sure when and where it has happened though. There goes peace on earth lol after Christmas.
