Operation "DYNAMO" - Recommendations of Personnel.
H.M.S. ESK. - Lieutenant-Commander Richard John Hullis Couch, R.N.
ESK made 6 trips, 3 being to Bray beach, during the
period 28th May - 3rd June, and brought to Dover about
4500 troops. On the 31st May, off Bray, she was forced,
by shell fire from shore batteries, to move westward along
the beach, ESK being holed in several places and having one
oil fuel tank pierced. She was also subjected to bombing
attacks on passage back to Dover, but avoided damage by the
use of speed and zig-zagging. On the 1st June she again
avoided damage off the entrance to Dunkirk by circling at
20 knots and when attacked later whilst taking survivors off
S.S. SCOTIA she drove off two bombers by the fire of 'B' and
'X' guns.
