Alright, I've seen this idea a few places, but haven't found a thread on it.

The Setting? WWI
The POD? The Christmas Truce.

On Christmas Day, 1914, German and British troops come together all along the Western Front, as do some French along the same. Such events are more widespread, and some Germans in British trenches (as well as vice versa) do not return come nightfall, and the NCOs do not shoot them. In the morning, an attack is ordered in areas where such truces popped up. The troops do not comply instead coming together under the the NCOs that agree with them. Open rebellion flares along the front.

What happens next, assuming that politicians in the capitols don't quite get with the spirit?
