Operation Dynamo, also known as the Miracle of Dunkirk, was a pivotal moment in World War II. This massive evacuation, executed between May 26 and June 4, 1940, saw over 338,000 Allied soldiers rescued from the beaches and harbor of Dunkirk, France.
The operation was a remarkable feat of coordination and bravery, involving hundreds of naval and civilian vessels. It allowed a significant portion of the British Expeditionary Force, along with French and Belgian troops, to escape the advancing German army, preserving vital strength for the Allies.
