Is Christmas mentioned at all in T2k canon? Do the various antagonists refrain from using nuclear weapons on this day- a respite after the carnage of the Thanksgiving Day Massacre and the recriminations that follow?

Do local commanders order their troops to stand down from combat ops on Christmas Day? Do we see something like the unofficial 1914 Christmas truce c. 2000?

I doubt it but to each referee their own. Only the Polish Armed Forces (AFAIK) still had chaplains in the WP satellite armies. Even so I wouldn't imagine Soviet handlers or political commissars would look kindly on any sort of unsanctioned truce.
