Those who attempted to rescue Jews and others from the Nazi death sentence did so at great risk to their own safety.  1944 Anyone found with a Jew, for example, was shot or publicly hung as a warning to others.  In Denmark, 7,220 of its 8,000 Jews were saved by a citizenry who hid them, then ferried them to the safety of neutral Sweden.
