Sinclair Davidson today not only reminded of the Warsaw Jewish ghetto uprising this day 1943, but also that the little boy in the famous photo below lived a long life. The ghetto fighters held out for more than a month. The uprising was three days before the planned liquidation of the ghetto.

Danish fishermen ferry Jews to safety in neutral Sweden during Nazi round-up, 1943

On September 28, 1943, Georg Ferdinand Duckwitz, a German diplomat, secretly informed the Danish resistance that the Nazis were planning to deport the Danish Jews.
The Danes responded quickly, organizing a nationwide effort to smuggle the Jews by sea to neutral Sweden.
With the help of the Danish people, Jews found hiding places in homes, hospitals, and churches.
Within a two-week period fishermen helped ferry 7,220 Danish Jews and 680 non-Jewish family members to safety across the narrow body of water separating Denmark from Sweden.
