Fire of Liberty

While we've celebrated the 60th anniversary of the end of World War II in Europe and will mark the 60th anniversary of VJ day this August, the British have just celebrated the 65th anniversary of "Operation Dynamo," which was the rescue evacuation of the UK soldiers from the beaches of Dunkirk. During this pivotal operation, various citizens of the UK set out to sea in their sea worthy vessels and helped rescue some 338,000 soldiers from the Nazi's thus ensuring Britain's will to fight another day.
