Naval pier and berthing parties for the East Pier, under
Cdr. Buchanan, were to go over early in WHITSHED. I went over in MTB 102 which had a cruising engine - very useful inside the crowded harbour. On the way over we passed other ships which had started earlier, and in the distance they seemed to be having a hot time from an air attack.

I got over at 2220 to find the harbour swarming with French fishing craft and vessels of all sorts. They were yelling and crowding alongside the East Pier which was already thick with French troops. Managed to get them out of the way of transports and destroyers in time and go on up the inner harbour.
WHITSHED also arrived at 2220, but owing to fresh easterly wind and west-going tide she could not get alongside pier where there was no one who would take a line. She was soon followed by SABRE and KINGFISHER. KINGFISHER was sent to the West Quay, but the others were backing and filling in the narrow harbour trying to get alongside and

Took some of the berthing party from WHITSHED to land them on the pier, but had great difficulty in getting alongside,

even in the MTB. Finally got them ashore, and by 2330
WHITSHED, SABRE and 3 personnel ships were alongside.
Note.- There was a wreck alongside the pier itself, a wrecked trawler off the end of the piling on the west side of the up-harbour channel and blockships sunk in the channel: task of these ships in getting alongside against wind and tide could hardly have been more difficult.
Luckily tide was high. Meanwhile, schuyts, Fleet sweepers and French TBs had been making their way into the West Quay where embarkation was going well.
The hold up at the East Pier had thrown out the programme tion in the entrance.

For this night the time was cut down by an hour to between 2230 and

The small craft were to go right up to the quays and docks of the innor harbour, the transports, destroyers and 4. paddle sycopers MCIC to use the East Pier and the remainder the West Quay. irvangoments were also made to bring off the Fronch Admiral in MASB.No. 7 as his own M.T.B.S vote soid to bo out of action.

This boat had a cruising ongine which was very usoful when we were noving about incide in the confined waters of the harbour, which were crowded with smill creft.

3/6, by the stream of French craft coming in or loaving the harbour and the scamanship displayed was really magnificent. A small handy tug to push them in would have been invaluable. I could not use the M.T.B. for this as a similar attempt on a previous night had put the M.S.A.B.'s ongine out of action.
About 2300 I took some of the borthing party from the "WHITSHED" to land them on the pier but had great difficulty in getting alongsido even in the M.T.B. Finally, however, they got ashore, and by 2330 three personnel ships, "WHITSHED" and "SABRE" were alongsido. When 10 is remombered that there was a wrock alongside the pier itself, a wrecked trawler off the and of the piling on the West side of the up harbour channel and block ships sunl: to this channel, the task of these ships manocuvring to get alongside against the wind and tide could hardly have been more difficult. Luckily the tido was high. In the meantime, Scoots, French T.B.S and Floot sweepers had been making their way into the West Quay and the embarkation from there was going well.
The hold up at the East Pier had however thrown out the programme of ships entering the harbour and there WOR great congestion in the entrance,
I had to stop ships coming in at times so that other chips could get out in safety, but there seemed never a moment when ships were not on the movein the dark, in waters that were alive with small craft, and the handling of the ships in these congested waters Was marvellous, It was hardly to be expected however that there would be 110 collisions, and "KTNOFTSHSR" was hit and badly holed by a French trawler. She transferrod her troops to a traviler 88 her D.C.
cable was outland there wore plenty of magnetic mines about. Then she was sent back to Dover.
At 0100 there came a report of 6 enemy H.T.B.S proceeding South Weet

from off Ostend. This was rather disconcerting news with soverel transports, destroyers and other craft lying stopped off the entrance to the harbour.
There were other troubles as well, for the "KELLET" reported at 0240 that she was aground. The tide was falling and she could be seen right up against the Western breakwater. Luckily a lifeboat managed to tow her storn clear and she got afloat again. It was then too near daylight to risk keeping her. The
West quay was occupied and it would be some time before she could be loaded.

On reading F.O.C.Dover's report quoted in the letter from the Governor of the Isle of Man, the Admiralty shared the view of the Governor and no award was made to "Manxman" at the time (Gasette 16.8.40). Early in January however the abbed X.
Admirality received from the Ministry of Shipping a copy of a letter addressed to the Ministry, on 31st December 194.0, by the Mercantile Marine Service Association. In the light of this letter it appeared that an injustice might have been done, possibly through misunderstanding on the part of the Sea Transport Officer, and F. O.C. Dover was asked to abbed T.
enquire and report.

His reply exonerated Captain Cowley and he was avarded a
