Does anyone remember an OLD Reader's Digest story, "Truce in the Forest" or something with that title? I think it takes place in France, in maybe WWII, where the French family is hiding some American soldiers. Then the Germans come in, discover the Americans, but the wife tells them not to fight, but eat dinner together.
Never heard that story.
I remember this story and it was made into a television show for Playhouse 90 or some such. I remember it took place during WWII. I don't think I have ever heard of the WWI incident. Thanks for posting it though, I will be on the look out for this movie.
