i see... yeah it looked like German forces still had the upper hand here.. but it wasn't for too long... quite impressive the amount of small fishing/leisure ships who saved a lot of people during that time

The Dunkirk evacuation, codenamed Operation Dynamo and also known as the Miracle of Dunkirk, or just Dunkirk, was the evacuation of more than 338,000 Allied soldiers during the Second World War from the beaches and harbour of Dunkirk, in the north of France, between 26 May and 4 June 1940. The operation commenced after large numbers of Belgian, British, and French troops were cut off and surrounded by German troops during the six-week Battle of France.

What happened after is the Blitzkrieg, when the Luftwaffe bombed Britain for months. But respect for the Royal Air Force (RAF) for defending the kingdom. Then soon after was Pearl Harbor, and America stormed the beaches of Normandy. Soon after we sailed to the Pacific Ocean to fight.
