Dunkirk

Today and for the rest of the weekend my husband is scanning the airwaves for news of the return to Dunkirk. It is the first time he has not taken part in it. His boat Wanda was one of the original little ships to take the soldiers from the beach.
He was the commodore of the Little ships society for years and organised the return over the busiest shipping lane in the world. This year he is at home as are many of the men who have taken part in tribute to the courage of the men who risked their lives. Pray that the weather remains steady. Some of those little ships are a long way past their best. As are their owners!
