How did Dunkirk lead to the battle of Britain?
Because the evacuation from Dunkirk saved 338,226 soldiers [British & French]. While equipment could be replaced men could not. Although a massive amount of equipment was lost, Dunkirk was probably Hitler's greatest mistake next to attacking Russia because if he had pressed home his attack he would have as good as wiped-out the army and destroyed morale. The saving of so many soldiers, against all the odds, gave a massive boost to morale in Britain - a boost that was never to be lowered, even during the blitz.

Why did the miracle of Dunkirk occur?
http://www.answers.com/topic/adolf-hitler's order of May 24 halting the advance of German armored forces into Dunkirk. This was the main reason for the so called "miracle of Dunkirk"...it was certainly no miracle....just a combination of a mistake by Hitler and the courage of 100s of British civilian small boat owners who volunteered to cross the English Channel to pick up British and French troops who were trapped with their backs to the sea. All under bombardment by the German Army and Airforces....many were killed or wounded in the operation...the only reason that the small boats managed to do the job was a period of good weather......but no miracles.
