Who Knew...? WW2 - Episode 4: Evacuation from Dunkirk


Listen Later

In Episode 4 of the podcast, our young historian Kai talks about Operation Dynamo, the evacuation from Dunkirk, which involved the rescue of more than 338,000 British and French soldiers from the French port of Dunkirk between 26 May and 4 June 1940. The evacuation, sometimes referred to as the Miracle of Dunkirk, was a big boost to British morale.
