Dunkirk
My stepdad was in the Northumberland fusiliers and was in the rearguard at Dunkirk and was taken to England at a french port further south,after some leave and regrouping he was sent to North Africa and was captured near Tobruk.With other POWS they were sent by boat to Italy and up to Germany ,he spent three years in various POW camps finally ended up just inside Poland.Flew back to the UK in a "Bomber"which he did not like!!
