Description

The statement that rectifies the date of death of the Danish captain of the Non-Intervention Committee to have it correctly recorded in the Civil Registry is an administrative document that acquires a strong symbolic value. This rectification shows the desire for precision and institutional respect towards an international figure who lost his life in a war context. The document reflects the importance of individual memory within the collective narrative and the care for historical veracity. It is also an example of how, even in times of war, the principles of legality and recognition of people’s rights were maintained, in line with the European values ​​of justice and dignity.
