A note about image and OCR quality

Every reasonable effort has been made to present these document images as flat, straight and accurately cropped as possible. Historical records can be difficult to photograph or scan because of tight bindings, deep gutters, page curvature, folds, creases, fragile paper, uneven edges, shadows, glare, skewed pages, fading, stains, tears, attachments and restrictions on how a document may be handled. These conditions can distort parts of an image and consequently affect the OCR transcription.

Considerable post-production work has been undertaken to crop, align, flatten and enhance the images where practicable, but the results represent our best effort rather than exact facsimiles. Text showing through from the reverse of a page, printed backgrounds, stamps, ruled lines, marks and text visible from neighbouring pages may confuse or spoil OCR output. Handwriting is not reliably recognised and, in most places, may be missing, incomplete or incorrectly transcribed. Always check the page image and, where accuracy matters, consult the original record held by the identified archive.

OCR is not a transcription. It is machine-generated text used to create research tags and help locate names and references within the source images; it should not be read as a verified narrative.

During all this period the whole ship's company
behaved in a grand ray. They were tireless in their energies
in whatever direction they were requiredd, either pulling
the shalers to and fro from the beach, or landing on the
jetty at Dunkirk and heartening the passage of the soldiers
with cheerful words or help. I regard this segnificent
spirit to be due to the example shown by my officers and
heads of departments in spite of the fact that 10 suffered
a very severe dive bombing attack on our second trip and
Low level bombing attacks from one plane lasting about 20
minutes this some trip, and by Saturday every can was needing
rest badly.
The spirit of the ship's company WSS shown when,
having cleared lower deck on Saturday evening and explained
the final stages of the operation, there vas literally a
"Tooth-suck" from the ship's company when the sailing
enncellation was piped by the bosun's case later.

Attached is list of recommendations of officers
I have the honour to be,
sir,
your Chedient Servent,
