For some reason, Denmark has a heroic movie about resisting Nazis. This is despite the fact that Wehrmacht occupied Denmark in less than 4.5 hours and lost no soldiers in combat. (Germany’s only 2 deaths were accidents during transit). The invasion began 04:15 on April 9, 1940; government ordered ceasefire ~06:00, formal surrender ~08:34.

Never ask a polish guy about the polish cavalry charge at the start of ww2. Makes them mad

The Danish Army was ordered not to resist. You're welcome.
