Factually Dunkirk was a failure for Hitler because the evacuation from Dunkirk saved 338,226 soldiers [British & French]. Although a massive amount of equipment was lost if Hitler had pressed home his attack he would have as good as wiped-out the army and destroyed moral. The saving of so many soldiers, against all the odds, gave a massive boost to moral in Britain - a boost that was never to be lowered, even during the blitz.
