1943 World War 2

As the years passed the Germans demands more and more from Denmark and at last it was all to much also for the government.

August the 29th 1943, the Germans attacked the Danish military. A few ships from the navy escaped to Sweden and what was left of the navy destroyed themselves.

The government resigned and now Denmark was finally a part of the allied.

A few times during the rest of the occupation allied airforces bombed selected spots in Denmark.
Because of the German censorship of every newspaper and the broadcasting, people were reading papers from the Resistance and/or listened to the Swedish or English radio.
