Seventy-nine years later, the Wiltz Christmas celebration remains a powerful symbol of hope and humanity. The soldiers are gone, but their legacy lives on. The children still vividly recall the joy of that special day. Each year on December 23rd, Wiltz residents gather to remember the GIs whose kindness offered the gift of Christmas, even in trying times. The Wiltz Christmas celebration stands as timeless proof that the human spirit can overcome any hardship, if we care for one another.
