Courage to Act

During three weeks in October 1943 (WWII), the citizens of occupied Denmark ferried their Jewish friends and family to safety in Sweden. This courage to act in a time of war saved over 7,200 lives. The Florida Holocaust Museum acquired one of these boats. Named "Thor", the rescue boat illuminates a heartfelt -- often untold -- story of hope, freedom, and human kindness.
