October 1943 was also the month during which the Danish people and resistance movement defied Nazi occupation forces to rescue their fellow Jewish citizens. During ten nights, over seven thousand people were spirited across the Oersund in small water craft to safety in nearby Sweden. For an intimate account of one of those stories, the reader is referred to the book "Number the Stars", by Lois Lowry. Danshawen (talk) 18:52, 3 March 2015 (UTC)danshawen[reply]
"Thirty-five days after it had been fighting as a member of the Axis powers against the Allies, Italy declared war on Germany, with a broadcast by Prime Minister Pietro Badoglio at 3:00 pm local time. Italy had entered the war on June 10, 1940, with a declaration of war against France and the United Kingdom."
My job is writing about World War II, and I don't understand what this paragraph is trying to say. The number of days between June 10, 1940 and October 13, 1943 is far more than 35. Or did the author mean to write that 35 days had passed between Italy ceasing to actively fight on the Axis side and October 13? That sounds reasonable, since 35 days passed between the surrender on September 8 and October 13, but the paragraph is phrased in such a stilted way that nobody without a pre-existing knowledge of the timeline would decipher it that way. 2A02:AB88:1A8A:E780:B1A3:B12E:A8F1:73C (talk) 18:58, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
