The Battle of Dunkirk (26 maio 1940 ano – 6 jun 1940 ano)

Descrição:

was a huge military loss for the Allies as they were clearly ready for defeat had the evacuation failed. Allied troops also lost large amounts of military gear like tanks and other resources as a result of the evacuation. However, the evacuation, or "Miracle of Dunkirk" as it was called, was largely successful as thousands of people were saved who would have been killed or captured otherwise. It also made a statement to Germany that Britain would not fall easily and that the Allies would not be divided.
