Actual events

Why are there no references to the actual event in this otherwise excellent article about a film that I really appreciated having been able to see? Since history is considerably different than the movie in that the German enlisted soldiers served under German officers and non-commissioned officers, there should be some historical links in this article, not just links to movie reviews. 2600:1700:9750:AC50:55FE:912C:EDDF:9DD7 (talk) 11:28, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. If you have reliable sources, feel free to write a section about this. Thanks. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 11:59, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It is not clear what is being asked for here. The correct historical information has been prominently in the lede of the article, fully sourced, since 2 March 2019, and there are several wikilinks to relevant historical Wikipedia articles. MPS1992 (talk) 18:34, 16 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There seems to be a statement in the beginning which reads Historians have criticised the film for showing German soldiers clearing mines under the command of Danish officers, which never happened.[7][8]. The articles cited however do not seem to reflect the statement made here, especially [7] which just seems to be a movie review. [8] is behind a paywall so I could not verify. I am not disputing this statement, however, I am concerned about reliable sources and that the statement could be conflated as dismissive of the entire historical background rather than one point of inaccuracy to be addressed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ActafianSeriactas (talk • contribs) 08:46, 28 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The initial leader of the German boys, Helmut Morbach, actually has some kind of rank - he leads the boys into the camp near the start and refers to himself as "an officer" when trying to take responsibility for grain stealing, but I think he's actually a Feldwebel rather than an oberleutnant. Rasmussen twice rebukes him for crying and tells him that "he has no responsibilities here". Sebastian Schumann is the one who emerges as a sort of natural leader, stealing the grain and coming up with the productivity frame, and with whom the Danish sergeant bonds a bit.

I took the time to read the article by Roly Evans and hence removed this from the article as I did contradict Mr Evens ``(in reality there were no prisoners of war involved in the clearance and no Danish officers directed or ordered German soldiers during the operation)``. It might contain some truth for those who'd like to nitpick about POW vs ```surrendered enemy personnel``` and how close Danish officers had to be to the actual demining, but Evans mentions Minekontrol headed by Kaptajn D.A.Wieth-Knudsen and that should be enough to remove that sentence above. -- TomK32 (talk) 18:58, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
