Pictures of the Rescue of the Danish Jews in Oct. 1943Very little photo documentation of these events exist. Often photos and footage believed to relate to the rescue in October do in fact illustrate transports of a much later date, and the persons appearing are members of the Resistance, allied airmen etc. Please see the samples below. © Frihedsmuseet |
