incredible, how people dare to kitschify the german occupation of denmark...
what I always admired was the noble gesture of the danish king to put a yellow star on his sleeve in protest when german nazi occupators ordered the danish jews to wear it. did you forget that all police-men of kobenhavn were deported to concentration camps during the war by germans? how stupid and blind people can be - to paint nazi terror as 'flirt in wartimes'

Wow that was a narrow approach to the fact of wars during human history
Every year this "living" museum called "Nyvang" arranges a weekend where people can imaging the last world war, or more specific the occupation of Denmark. They got help from Danish and German groups (this year approx 30 people (soldiers and nurses from Germany)
The role-play starts with invasion, the years with occupation, resistance, and the end of the war.
Many older Danes who survived the war, enjoy this arrangement with their younger family members, with storytelling at "Nyvang"
During this weekend there was a photo contest where this photo got 1. price.
I guess it was the mood and a hint of flirt between soldier and nurse.....there is no political, nationalistic or nazi-terror issue in that kind of flirt....they are just ordinary people.
In every war people from both parts fall in love....that is a fact not even you can change Fabio.

You should´nt call people with different approach to life stupid or blind.....maybe you could try to see things from other views ?

Why try to delete the history.....without history we are nothing !!!!
