Interesting, how did this battle compare and contrast to the Battle of Dunkirk?
The Battle of Dunkirk took place during WWII and it was the evacuation of Allied soldiers from the beaches and harbor of Dunkirk, France. In contrast to the Battle of Somme, the Battle of Dunkirk was more of a rescue mission than a battle. Allied soldiers were trapped by German forces and were rescued by a fleet of civilian boats. Dunkirk was significant in that the evacuation of around 338,000 soldiers gave a much-needed boost of morale to the Allied forces and it allowed them to regroup and continue fighting the war.
