How did Germany Treat Denmarks danish Jews in 1943?

Germany (represented by Hitler himsefl) wanted to deport the Danish Jews to extermination camps elsewhere in Europe.

The escape was made possible first of all because a German officer, Duckwitz, told Danish (and Swedish) politicians about it, and when the actual escape took place in small boats across the Øresund strait there are several reported cases where German patrols were 'looking the other way' rather than trying to prevent it.

The handkerchief is for fishermen only because they need it to ward off the dogs so that they don;t know that they have people on board to sail to Sweden.
