Christmas is Cancelled
This is the text of a spoof order, found by the Russians, on the body
of a German soldier during the winter campaign of 1941 in which the Germans
were caught out by the severity of the Russian winter. It shows that even
the Germans had a sense of humour.
Christmas will not take place this year for the following reasons:
- Joseph has been called up for the army
- Mary has joined the Red Cross
- Baby Jesus has been evacuated to the countryside with all the other
childre
- the three Wise Men could not get visas because they lacked proof
of Aryan origin
- there will be no Star because of the blackout
- the Shepherds have been made into sentries
- the angels have become radio operators.
Only the Donkey is left and you can't have Christmas with just a Donkey.
