Meanwhile, there will be an actual authentic experience of eating a trench stew as well as rations which soldiers were given to survive in no man's land. The committee will also plan to recreate the Christmas Truce of 1914, with a football, reenactors in different uniforms and complete with small Christmas trees lit up.
