Whatever you may think of the service of the British Expeditionary Force, there was plenty of heroism at Dunkirk. If nothing else, the story of the civilians who sailed across in their little ships should never be forgotten. A number of the original ships were used in the film which I was pleased to see.

The Brits did an astounding thing, rescuing the BEF and getting them home. I will reserve my opinion of the movie until I see it (I have never seen a realistic war movie).

Whatever one may think of the Brits' tactics, techniques, and employment, they were always resourceful and courageous.
