Football on the Thessaloniki Front

Football on the Thessaloniki Front

Many believe that this picture shows the scene of the Christmas Truce on the Western Front of World War I in 1914, but this is not the case. This photo shows British soldiers playing football near Thessaloniki, Greece, on December 25, 1915.

Previously, we published articles “I volunteered for the front, was seriously wounded, went blind...” and the Great War.
