An interesting item I recently purchased from a friend is this picture of the paddle steamer Devonia, wrecked during the evacuation of Dunkirk in 1940. #dunkirk #paddlesteamer #devonia #maritimehistory #navalhistory #shipwreck #operationdynamo

85 years ago at 03:40 this morning the last ship left the shores of #Dunkirk after just over 338,000 #Allied soldiers had been rescued in #OperationDynamo or #TheMiracleOfDunkirk. We remember them all, but especially those that didn't return or spent the rest of the war in captivity.

Today marks 85 years since #OperationDynamo was initiated to evacuate thousands of British soldiers from the beach of Dunkirk. 🫡

Over 9 days, every civilian sea faring vessel you can think of, made the journey saving over 380,000 troops; fighting with their backs to the sea. 🇬🇧

Operation Dynamo: Things you need to know about the Dunkirk Evacuation The biggest evacuation in military history, Operation Dynamo was the desperate and near-miraculous rescue in late May 1940 of Allied forces trapped by the invading German army around Dunkirk.

Today is the 85th Anniversary of the Miracle of Dunkirk: #OperationDynamo.

The little ships which rescued over 338,000 soldiers from the beaches of Dunkirk. Many of the 224,000 British soldiers who were rescued were from Yorkshire. Individual names are not readily documented. #WW2 #dunkirk #operationdynamo

RIGHT NOW in 1940, the signal goes out to begin a mass evacuation of British troops from #Dunkirk. Over the next eight days, #OperationDynamo will see an improvised armada of more than 800 navy warships, freighters, ferries and civilian pleasure boats rescue 338,000 men.

85 years ago Operation Dynamo in WW2, the retreat from Dunkirk beaches took place. Around 1/3 million troops were plucked off the beaches. Often by now very old little ships. This nearly as old WW2 boat is going for restoration. whaleback.org #dunkirk #OperationDynamo

85 years ago today #OperationDynamo had started. Hundreds of thousands were trapped, thousands had already been on a fighting retreat for days, many would be ordered to stay, many would volunteer to stay, many would never come home. The miracle of #Dunkirk had begun. #Dunkirk85

From Dover’s heights, Vice Admiral Ramsay plotted every course. Across the Channel, 850+ civilian “little ships”—fishing smacks, yachts, lifeboats—answered the call, threading through wreckage to bring hope to the beaches. #LittleShips #OperationDynamo #Dunkirk #History

In May 1940 #OperationDynamo sent hundreds of #LittleShips to #Dunkirk to rescue the British Army from French beaches
They were helped in the air by #spitfires from #RAFManston and many other RAF stations on the South coast
