Churchill's Dunkirk
History丘吉尔的敦刻尔克
(uk) Michael Korda
On September 1, 1939, the German army invaded Poland. By 1940, under the iron heel of the Nazis, the Maginot Line was ineffective, and the Netherlands, Luxembourg, and Belgium fell one after another. In May, the fall of Paris was imminent, leaving British troops stranded at Dunkirk. In the same month, Churchill became the British Prime Minister, making Britain, facing diplomatic isolation, suddenly the only country in Europe with the courage and determination to resist Hitler. At this time, the European continent was filled with capitulationism, and only Churchill was still calling for regaining courage and continuing to fight. On June 4, 1940, in nine days, Churchill used various ships and thousands of aircraft sorties to evacuate a total of 338,000 soldiers from Dunkirk to the United Kingdom, creating a miracle in the history of World War II. The miraculous return of the army has awakened people's sense of resistance, and the lives of tens of millions of people will be changed.
