German soldiers and vehicles before a barracks

Before a long, many-windowed building a helmeted soldier stands with raised hand while a car with the number plate WH-354… turns past him and a soldier leans out of its door; an open cross-country vehicle full of helmeted soldiers drives by, and against a pale sky a man sits upright in the turret of a tank. Apparently German newsreel footage; according to the source's summary of this reel, German armour entered Denmark. Denmark was occupied on 9 April 1940, and its government gave in the same morning.
