As the two men, backed by the choir, stood in front of the main altar and sang <em>Stille Nacht! Heilige Nacht<\/em>, they had no inkling of the impact their simple composition would have on the world \u2013 and for all time hence. As it happens, <em>Silent Night<\/em> was sung in the trenches by both the German and the British forces during the Great War and helped lead to a brief Christmas truce in 1914.<\/p>\n<p>The guns of The Great War fell silent 102 years ago, ending one of the deadliest struggles in the history of the human race. This war, more than any before or since, shaped the modern era. It mobilised 65-million troops; claimed 20-million military and civilian deaths; destroyed four multi-ethnic empires with consequences which are still being felt today. It disorganised the international system in hugely destructive ways, unleashing the demons of political disorder, extremism, and cruelty which disfigured the 20th century.<\/p>\n<p>The soldiers sang &#8211; to the popular tune of <em>What A Friend We Have In Jesus<\/em>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>When the guns have fallen silent<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>And our World at peace shall be. <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>We\u2019ll return to dear old England,<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Fritz to home in Germany.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>We\u2019ll all forget this mud and horror,\u00a0 <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Just our fallen will remain. <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>But their names will live forever<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>War must never come again.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>During the early days of the Second Battle of Ypres \u2013 or Wipers as it was called by the English-speaking soldiers \u2013 a young Canadian artillery officer, Lieutenant Alexis Helmer, was killed by German artillery shell. He was serving in the same Canadian artillery unit as his friend, the military doctor, and commander, Major John McCrae.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Serendipitously, the Chaplain had been called-away and Major McCrae was asked to conduct the burial service for his friend. The next evening, sitting on the rear step of an ambulance, he spent twenty minutes of his precious rest-time scribbling in a notebook, fifteen lines of verse:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>In Flanders fields the poppies blow<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Between the crosses, row on row<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>That mark our place; and in the sky<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>The larks, still bravely singing, fly<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Scarce heard amid the guns below.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>We are the Dead.
