The harbour of Dunkirk under attack

Dense black smoke pours from burning buildings along a harbour, with piles of timber and scrap in the foreground; on a beach rows of soldiers in steel helmets crouch as a huge fountain of sand and smoke rises and an aircraft flies low overhead. According to the source Dunkirk, where British and French troops were evacuated between 26 May and 4 June 1940.
