338,000 (mostly) British and French troops were evacuated from the beaches of Dunkirk in Northern France in late May and early June 1940. 'Operation Dynamo' has been referred to as 'The Miracle of Dunkirk' as only about 30,000 troops had been expected to escape. Most of their equipment had to be left behind but the troops escaped and became the nucleus of the enlarged British Army.
