Hundreds of thousands of British soldiers, and some of their allies, were able to leave Dunkirk, France and sail back to England. They left their heavy equipment and vehicles on the beach. They returned back to Europe eventually and liberated it from Nazi Germany, along with the help of the Americans and the Russians and people from other nations.
