@jsargentr.bsky.social Happy Christmas!
Today’s article is up and it’s a look at Christmas in wartime…

From an account of the famous Christmas truce in 1914…

To children evacuated away from
home in #WW2

And soldiers fed their Christmas Dinner by parachute in Burma…

With some nice touches from the enemy in Korea…
ARTICLE: Christmas in Wartime
I wanted to give you Christmas with a difference, and so I have dug out a handful of accounts from very different people, during very different wars.
