To Fight Another Day

Their shouts remain as hope reclaimed the smoke still on the beach The roars that hide of those who died yet heard within the breach A spirit roams within the bones of men who went beyond In freedom’s quest to give their best in times — forever long (Operation Dynamo - Dunkirk, 1940: February, 2025)

Well written. Operation Dyanamo was a valiant rescue operation at that time of the war. The Germans still had air superiority.
