Subject: RE: BS: Christmas Truce (1914)
From the "non official source":
>>The Revue historique des armées, the magazine of the Ministry of Defence, is a quarterly specialist technical periodical and the SHD's communication vehicle. It was founded in 1945 and received the Académie française award in 1954 and the Académie des sciences morales et politiques award in 1981. Four issues are published per year, each comprising 144 pages.

The Revue historique des armées is richly illustrated, largely thanks to items from the SHD's picture collections and publishes a wide variety of articles, special reports on different topics, short articles on French military badges, information relating to the department's records collections, various book review features and reports on academic research and conferences and other events relating to military history.<<
