Curiosidades
While bicycle troops might seem risible and impractical to modern eyes, such units were in fact quite common in many countries at the time, including Germany, fielding whole bicycle battalions. Early in World War Two, Japan conquered much of China and South East Asia employing some 50,000 bicycle infantry, such troops taking e.g. Singapore from Great Britain. Bicycle units were also employed by the British during the invasion of Normandy in 1944. Bicycle infantry was seen as cost effective mobility in place of e.g. horses, that needed extra feed and could panic under fire.

Pifias
In the battle of Lundtoftbjerg(1940), a German soldier is equipped with a MG42 machine gun (developed in 1942).

Fantastic War Movie about a War that I never Knew Existed!

I have to say that I'm very impressed with this movie. I had always assumed that the Danes were German sympathizers and did not put up an effective response to the German Invasion. This is definitely not so! Our little Bicycle platoon of Brave Danish Warriors, definitely gave the Huns a run for their money.

In the movie, the Machine gunners are instructed to target the armored vehicles. I really couldn't understand why until I read this...

"The German high command tried to present the attack on Denmark as a peaceful invasion in an attempt to score propaganda points, so German losses were never released. They succeeded in this, and most of the world believed Denmark did not put up any resistance against the invasion.[37]

However, in 2005, the archives of the Danish weapons manufacturer DISA ('Danish Industrial Syndicate') were opened. DISA produced the Danish 20 mm cannon that took out (relatively) many German vehicles. The Germans were naturally very interested in this weapon and had forced the syndicate to export them to Germany. And in selling them to the German army, they got their best argument from the Germans themselves: they told the company that 203 soldiers had been killed or wounded by the guns in Jutland.[38]"
