G.D.
No. 5d.
To: Commander Dover. M/S
31st May, 1940.
245
Sir,
Polly 247 JOHNSON
I beg to report the following:-
On the 29th May I proceeded in company to Dunkirk.
arriving about 1500.
About 1600 the fleet laying alongside the pier were heavily bombed by air attack, The "Polly Johnson" laying outside berth, in my opinion, got the full weight. Bombs were exploding within 10 yards; she shook and trembled.
I had six casualties.
65
With great difficulty, also with half of my crew wiped out, I managed to get my ship clear of Dunkirk harbour with survivors from a. Destroyer, and also soldiers.
About half an hour after leaving Dunkirk, my chief reported that the ship was making water fast. Water was over the stoke hole floors. I signalled to H.M. Trawler "Arley"
(next ahead) "ship making water rapidly, keep close to me". About five minutes afterwards I received a signal "have orders to take survivors and crew and sink "Polly Johnson". About ten minutes after this was carried out. The "Arley" fired two rounds then left "Polly Johnson". She was still afloat when I
last saw her. Position Middlekerke Bank Buoy (midway) Nieuport
Bank Buoy.
In my opinion that was the best way out, the "Polly
Johnson" being badly bombed and would not have been fit for further service. Her port side was simply riddled along the water line and I am sure she would not have reached the nearest port.
I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your obedient Servant, g. Lake

Report of Enquiry into the loss of H.M. M/S Trawler POLLY JOHNSON
MILITARY
BRAN
in operation "Dynamo".
6F OCT 1940
Sir,
With reference to Admiralty Letter N.L. 6245/40
dated 1st August, 1940, be pleased to lay before Their Lordships the following report arising from an enquiry into the loss of
H.M. M/S Trawler POLLY JOHNSON on 29th May, 1940.
2.
Skipper Lieutenant L. Lake, R.N.R. who was in command of POLLY JOHNSON was examined on 1st October, 1940.
3.
At about 1500 on 29th May when POLLY JOHNSON was secured to CALVI which was alongside the pier at Dunkirk and astern of GRENADE, she was subjected to a heavy bombing attack.
Splinters from near misses perforated the ship's port side with small holes just above the water line and put the 12 pdr. gun out of action.
4.
The ship was subjected to further bombing attacks during the next two hours but at 1700, with about 50 troops and some survivors from GRENADE on board, she proceeded out of harbour, being able to make only very slow speed.
5.
Engine and Boiler rooms were making water steadily and ship's pumps were unable to cope with the rate of flooding.
6.
At about 1830 midway between Middlekerk and Nieuport
Buoys when it was obvious that POLLY JOHNSON would not remain afloat much longer, Trawler ARLEY came alongside and took all hands on board.
7.
ARLEY then endeavoured to destroy POLLY JOHNSON by gunfire but failed and left her in a sinking condition in about
7/8 fathoms. It is considered, however, that she was unlikely to remain afloat for long.
8.
Although it was not possible to elicit full particulars of the damage sustained by this ship it seems, from the evidence, in view of the fact that water was fast entering the Engine and Boiler room that this compartment was flooding below the waterline as result of heavy underwater explosions.
The flooding was accentuated when draught increased to admit water through holes already made above the waterline.
9.
Secret Charts were burnt in the stokehold before ship was abandoned and all S.P's and C.B's were transferred to ARLEY
and landed at Dover.
10, is the desirability of these craft carrying a number of varying
The only point brought out in the loss of this vessel size wooden plugs for stopping shot holes.
