Asap

Answer 1

The successful evacuation was a great boost to civilian morale, and created the 'Dunkirk spirit' which helped Britain to fight on in the summer of 1940

Step-by-step explanation:

Despite many ships being sunk and many lives lost, by the end of the operation on 4 June, Ramsay, his ships and staff had rescued 338,226 British and Allied troops and landed them in England. The rescue came to be regarded as a 'miracle', and remains the largest amphibious evacuation undertaken in wartime

Answer 2

The British and French evacuated 338,000 troops from Dunkirk.

Step-by-step explanation:

This massive amount of troops were sitting ducks on the beach and somehow the Royal Navy (along with civilian ships) managed to evacuate all of these troops back to England safely.
