in my opinion, a defeat, because they basically just ran away. but at the time it was viewed as a victory, because it saved the lives of many soldiers. it was a defeat for the the Germans because they retreated, it was a victory for the British because if it werent for all those fishermen and sailors the soilders would of been killed
In May 1940, the British Army had been fighting in support of the French against the German invaders of France. British forces were cut off from the other forces near the port of Dunkirk, and were in danger of being killed/ captured. The Prime Minister, Winston Churchill, ordered any available ship to pick up the forces at Dunkirk. Over 900 small boats responded, and rescued 338,226 soldiers. Churchill later called this "The miracle at Dunkirk".

The evacuation from Dunkirk saved 338,226 soldiers [British & French].
None, I would think. The British evacuation from Dunkirk was in 1940, and America did not enter World War 2 until late 1941.
An estimated 68,000 British and Allied troops were killed, wounded, or captured during the evacuation of Dunkirk in 1940. Additionally, around 3,500 British civilians lost their lives during the operation.
During the Dunkirk evacuation in World War II, known as Operation Dynamo, approximately 68,000 British and French soldiers were killed, wounded, or captured. The evacuation itself, which took place from May 26 to June 4, 1940, successfully rescued around 338,000 Allied troops. While the exact number of civilian and military deaths directly related to the Dunkirk operation varies, the overall toll reflects the intense conflict in the region.

Apparently, the retreating allied forces did not want anything useful to fall into german hands (ammo, vehicles, working horses, etc.) so they gave orders to sacrifice all their horses. That's what I gather.
