Silent Night
a Christmas Story from the Brickyard Crew, inspired by the 1914 Christmas Truce
It is Christmas Eve 1914 somewhere on the Western Front.
British Soldiers are huddled around a fire, trying to keep warm and their spirits up.
Based loosely on an historical event, here is this year’s Festival offering from the Brickyard Crew.
It is rather late being published because the editor went down with the lurgy in the run-up to Christmas and during it, and he has only just found enough energy to finish it off.
