EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative map print depicts the northern French and Belgian coast during the momentous evacuation from Dunkirk in 1940, a pivotal event in World War II. The map, dated November 19, 1940, highlights the strategic locations of the evacuation from Dunkirk and other points along the coast, as well as the evacuation triangle through which the Allied army retreated. The area of the rearguard fight is also marked, emphasizing the intense and desperate nature of the battle. The evacuation of Allied troops from Dunkirk, which took place between May 26 and June 4, 1940, was a remarkable feat of military logistics. Over the course of nine days, more than 338,000 soldiers were rescued from the beaches of Dunkirk and the surrounding area, thanks to a fleet of over 800 boats, both civilian and military. The evacuation was a crucial turning point in the war, as it prevented the complete destruction of the British Expeditionary Force (BEF) and allowed the Allies to regroup and prepare for future battles. The map also indicates the locations of key towns and cities along the coast, including Bergues and Poperinghe in Belgium. These towns played an important role in the evacuation, serving as staging areas for the troops and providing vital supplies and resources to the evacuating forces. The map serves as a poignant reminder of the bravery and resilience of the soldiers involved in the evacuation, as well as the critical role played by the civilian population in supporting the war effort. This map print offers a unique and insightful perspective on the events of the Dunkirk evacuation, making it an essential addition to any collection of World War II history or military memorabilia.
