FRANCE-BRITAIN-HISTORY-WWII
A British WWII veteran is wheeled upon his arrival at the Allied Momument to attend a commemorative ceremony on May 29, 2010 in the French northern city of Malo-les-Bains near Dunkirk, to mark the anniversary of the evacuation of Allied soldiers from northern France in 1940, a pivotal World War II moment. Pushed back across northern France by the invading Germans, some 338,000 British and French soldiers were rescued between May 27 and June 4, 1940 from the beaches of northern France during the evacuation dubbed Operation Dynamo. A ragtag band of boats that helped rescue Allied soldiers arrived on May 27, 2010 in Dunkirk to mark the anniversary of the evacuation. AFP PHOTO DENIS CHARLET
