SABATON releases \”Christmas Truce\” Animated Story Video

It was December 24th, in the tragic year of 1914, in the middle of a cold night. After six months in the muddy trenches, World War 1 still hadn\’t come to an end on Christmas Eve; the soldiers were missing home even more than on any other day and started quietly singing carols. Although an official truce was declined from the governments, an eerie silence haunted the empty battlefields on the morning of December 25th. That was when the British and German soldiers slowly crawled out of their trenches to wish each other a Merry Christmas, take photographs, play games, and even exchange a few gifts. In this animated story video, SABATON depicts this remarkable event that would come to be known as the \”Christmas Truce.\” This brand new video was unveiled during the band\’s ongoing Christmas Advent Calendar on their social media channels and website.
