That the desire for nicotine transcends national boundaries.

Game theory. In WW1 you faced off against the same soldiers for long periods of time. Attacks / casualties meant retaliation. Being friendly meant only fake fighting and a better chance at living.
They would often unironically apologize to the other side after an artillery bombardment.

the Christmas truth was in 1914. Germany and Britain didn't adopt the Stahlhelm and brody helmets seen in the pic til late 1915

You're right there actually. Did the Germans start off with pickelhaubes?
>>140423268
Fun fact, Hitler didn't participate in that truce, and reprimanded men who did, saying that it wasn't fitting behaviour for a war.
>>140423622
Germans started with leather pickelhaubes lined with khaki cloth. Then transitioned to stahlhelms because they were better at protecting from shrapnel.

Yes, German troops weren't widely issued Stahlhelms until Verdun in 1916.
