Sad, considering that the Danes bravely resisted Nazi attempts to deport Danish Jews to Auschwitz, most escaped to Sweden.

10,000 Danes also volunteered to join the SS Freikorps Danmark...

So did Norwegians, Swedes and other Europeans.  But don't smear their motives.  They joined to fight against Russian Marxism which was a genuine threat to their borders, as it was to Germanys.
