To: Rear-Admiral Taylor, O.B.E..
Sir,
I have the honour to forward the narrative of events whilst in command of m.v. "NEW PRINCE OF WALES"
until she was believed sunk at 1415 at the beaches near
Bray.
A.M. Wednesday 89th May I was ordered to proceed to Sheerness to report to the Commodore at H.M.S. "WILDFIRE"
Arrived Sheerness about 1700 was ordered to proceed in m.v. "NEW PRINCE OF WALES" leading flotilla of seven light craft. Left camber at H.N.S. "WILDFIRE" proceeded to sea through boom. Two boats appeared to be in difficulties and did not leave the boom. I was met by escort yacht and formed astern of her.
Had to slow down to keep boats in company. First three boats astern kept good station, remaining one fell astern but owing to urgency of getting boats to destination flotilla did not decrease speed any further.
About 2200 yacht escort was challenged from shore.
She informed me an officer was required to go in to
Margate for orders, so proceeded myself in fast motor boat
"MARSAYRA". Established my identity and was told to push on to Ramsgate. While away one boat "QUSEN
BOADACEA" broke down, after some delay she was taken in tow by escort yacht. My port engine broke down, speed greatly reduced. One boat lost contact in darkness. I
went back to look for her off Longrose, search unsuccessful, rejoined escort. Fog came down at dawn and escort anchored with "NEW PRINCE OF WALES", "QUEEN BOADACEA"
and "MARSAYRA", off Ramsgate exact position uncertain.
After an hour fog cleared enough to show bucy ahead 80
proceeded with "MARSAYRA" in company escort yacht and following with "QUEEN BOADACEA". Engines misfiring badly harbour in "MARGAYRU". Reported to Naval Officer-instopped just outside Ramagate, anchored and proceeded into
Charge Ramsgate received charte and orders to proceed to beaches between Bray and La Panne and to carry on remained to return. Boats were towed in, repairs ferrying troops from shore to ships until only enough started fuel on "NEW PRINCE OF WALES" immediately.
at once by route 'X' for Dunkerque. Arrived off French
Engines ready for use at 1630 BO proceeded to sea coast 2230 (Thursday 30th). Port engine failed again fiercely and heavy pall of smoke covered the channel shortly after turning parallel to coast. Dunkerque to burning the north. Endeavoured to find beach with boat hardly making unsuccessful any and I was lost in smoke, saw green light fterward way through the water. Attempte to locate troops buoy were and established approximate position, immediately starboard engine failed, had to drop anchor.
E.R.A. reported ammount of fuel remaining and I
estimated we could not return to Ramsgate even if we did The no
BO determined to carry on until fuel ran out.

"NEW PRINCE OF WALES" again after she was hit.
Shortly afterward I managed to obtain sight with one eye and took charge of the wheel as the H.O. rating did not appear to know how to handle her. This left her Captain an R.N.R. Lieutenant free to direct operations, we proceeded to carry on evacuating military who were swimming in the sea. After about forty five minutes, the launch being loaded to full capacity we went alongside H.M.S. "MOSQUITO" where my crew and military were embarked.
On arrival on board I was given a morphia injection and remember nothing further until arrival in
Dover 0700 Saturday, 1st June.
I should like to bring to your notice for favourable recommendation B.R.A. (5th class) White who long continuous hours in an endeavour to maintain his enginess in running order under most difficult conditions;
also the stoker whose name I cannot recall who untiringly assisted the above.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your obedient Servant,
(Sgd) P.H.E. Bennett,
Sub-Lieutenant, Royal Navy.

To NAVAL OF FICER IN CHARGE
RAMSGATE
Submitted
Report on the Medical Organisation at Ramsgate Naval
Base during the evacuation of the B.E.F. from the
French coast.
In such an emergency a basis of procedure had to be rapidly improvised and modified according to circumstances. Collaboration between the Naval. medical personnel and the RAMC was essential and after the first day was found to be working smoothly and efficiently.
The suggestion that the floor of the Merrie England base should be used as & Clearing Station was supported by the NOIC, and traffic from the eastern pier head
ATO
was so organised. Very little delay was found in rapidly clearing the wounded from ships as they berthed.
tels
Smaller boats were dealt with at the Dover steps further down. A naval and military doctor was always available at the pier head for some time before and after high led tide at which time many of the larger vessels entered the harbour. A pier head rallying point was established for medical personnel, and here stocks of dressings, stretchers and medical essentials were kept.
Transport in the form of ambulances Military, ARP, and
St.John's was always available and ample. I would
