It was Christmas eve, and in the dark of the night, while a lull in the shooting was being enjoyed, someone started singing a Christmas carol. I do not remember whether it was a German, American, or English soldier, but his voice could be herd throughout the battle field. Soldiers from both sides started to join in, and before long every soldier was singing along.
But, this miracle did not stop there. The two sides actually met, and shared drink and fellowship, for the remainder of the evening.
I find this event, to be the most uplifting war story, that I have ever herd. But, at the same time, the most saddest. -As the next day, these same men that the night before were enjoying each others company, in a spirit of brotherly love, went back to killing each other.

But I'm with you, we need some more WWII maps! Notably the Pacific theater.
I'd also like to see crazy oddities of the war, such as the Invasion of Madagascar or proposed plans, such as the invasion of Malta.
