So we now know what the council wasted a huge amount of money on rather than improving the town or other areas of Ramsgate. 338 of them all round the harbour.

RIGHT NOW in 1940, the signal goes out to begin a mass evacuation of British troops from #Dunkirk. Over the next eight days, #OperationDynamo will see an improvised armada of more than 800 navy warships, freighters, ferries and civilian pleasure boats rescue 338,000 men.

Today marks 85 years since #OperationDynamo was initiated to evacuate thousands of British soldiers from the beach of Dunkirk. 🫡

Over 9 days, every civilian sea faring vessel you can think of, made the journey saving over 380,000 troops; fighting with their backs to the sea. 🇬🇧

An interesting item I recently purchased from a friend is this picture of the paddle steamer Devonia, wrecked during the evacuation of Dunkirk in 1940. #dunkirk #paddlesteamer #devonia #maritimehistory #navalhistory #shipwreck #operationdynamo

In May 1940 #OperationDynamo sent hundreds of #LittleShips to #Dunkirk to rescue the British Army from French beaches
They were helped in the air by #spitfires from #RAFManston and many other RAF stations on the South coast

85 years ago Operation Dynamo in WW2, the retreat from Dunkirk beaches took place. Around 1/3 million troops were plucked off the beaches. Often by now very old little ships. This nearly as old WW2 boat is going for restoration. whaleback.org #dunkirk #OperationDynamo
