Answer 5

The text of the story can be found here: http://storytruceintheforest.blogspot.com/

Basically, it is a story of people being merciful and kind and voluntarily disarming and choosing brotherhood and peace rather than war for Christmas.

The setting is a cottage near the German/Belgian border. Three lost American soldiers, one seriously wounded, knock on the door of a cottage. Despite the fact that they are "the enemy," the woman lets them in, tends the wounded man, and starts preparing dinner for them.

As they were preparing dinner, there is another knock, but this time it is German soldiers. They ask if they can stay. The woman knows that there is a law against harboring the enemy, and that not only could her American guests be shot, but so could her and her son. Despite this, she welcomes the German soldiers in, but tells them that they need to leave their weapons, and says "this Christmas night, let us forget about killing."

The Germans and the Americans are uncomfortable at first, but they eat together and then start helping each other a little. A German examines the American's wound, and they help them know how to get back to the American lines.

They shook hands and each went their separate ways back to their sides of the war, but for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day there was peace between them, and the story suggests that we should be willing to have that sort of brotherhood all the time, because that is what the idea of Christmas and Christ is about.
