The Dunkirk Evacuation in 100 Objects

The Story Behind Operation Dynamo in 1940

Beschreibung

On 26 May 1940, the Admiralty issued the directive for Operation Dynamo, aiming to rescue the British Expeditionary Force (BEF) from Dunkirk. Initially, they expected to evacuate only 45,000 men within two days, anticipating that enemy action would soon end the operation. However, the outcome exceeded all expectations.
