3 records3 potential matching records have been identified.
These records may contain vessel particulars, reported movements, participation assessments, named personnel and source references. A match does not by itself prove that the vessel participated in Operation Dynamo.
“Potential match” means a candidate returned by one or more indexing rules; it is not necessarily an exact identity match. Depending on the source, matching may use a normalised vessel name, a partial text or OCR hit, an alias, or related metadata. Roman-numeral suffixes such as I, II, III, IV and V may be absent, misread or separated from the base name, so records for similarly named vessels can be grouped incorrectly. Multi-word names can also produce candidates where only one significant word matches. Confirm the full name, numeral, vessel type, dimensions, builder, ownership, dates and source context before treating two records as the same vessel.
We are compiling and checking transcriptions, metadata, vessel-name matches, source references and reuse permissions before publishing further detail. This work helps prevent incomplete OCR, historic spelling variations or unverified associations from being presented as established fact.

CONFIDENTIAL. Дурашь 197 Biwlo/zn Subject: Narrative of Events of H.M.S. Caribia. * 456 From...... Lieut. JUNE D.H. Swift, R.N., The Gables, Halifax. Date 8th May 1940. To The Vice Admiral, Dover. (Copy to :- The Commander in Chief, The Nore.) Sir, I have the honour to submit the following narrative of events of H.M.S. Caribia in accordance with N.G.O. 448. The draft left Chatham at 0800 on the 26th May and took over the ship from the Dutch crew at Tilbury at 1500. In the afternoon victualling stores were embarked and the ship was then "wiped". This was satisfactorily completed at 0315/27. The ship was then ordered to proceed to Southend for compass adjustment and to Sheerness for storing and fuelling. Southend was reached at 0630 and during the forenoon the ship was swung for compass adjustment. On arrival at Sheerness at 1300 the ship moored and fuel and water were taken in and later naval stores and special stores embarked. The ship was then ordered to proceed to Southend for orders. At 0800/28 orders were received to proceed to Marte les Bains. On approaching Dunkirk at 2230 a drifter with 120 troops on board was closed. These troops were embarked and the drifter returned to the harbour for more. As these had not arrived after one hour the ship entered the harbour and secured alongside the eastern pier. The ship was then filled with a total of about 320 troops and at 0400 slipped and proceeded. At 1300/29 the North Goodwin examination vessel was hailed and orders were received to proceed to Margate. The troops were disembarked at Margate Pier at 1600 and provisions and stores were embarked. Orders were then received to proceed to the beaches east of Dunkirk, with "Zeus" in company as the latter's compass was unreliable. The ships slipped and proceeded at 1930/29.

TUESDAY, 28TH MAY CHAP. V had all come under fire from the shore guns at Calais and Gravelines. At 0415 on the 28th May the Queen of the Channel, loaded with 904. troops, was attacked by one aircraft; 3 or 4 bombs were dropped, which straddled the ship abaft the mainmast and broke her back, the starboard propeller shaft and the rudder. By good fortune the Dorrien Rose, en route for Dunkirk, was in the vicinity and rescued the troops : the Queen of the Channel sank about 1/2 hour later. The St. Seiriol, which left Dunkirk at about 0415 with 494 troops, reached Folkestone in safety. Civilian crews feel the strain Some 45 personnel vessels were used during operation "Dynamo" Of these eight were sunk, at least six were so damaged by bombing or gunfire as to render them unfit for further use during the operation, and two were damaged in collision. Nine of the largest of these personnel vessels had been engaged prior to "Dynamo" in operations at Dunkirk, Calais and Boulogne, and their Captains and crews were beginning to feel the strain when Operation "Dynamo" started. Thus it was that the Master of the Canterbury, which had already completed 2 round trips to Dunkirk in operation "Dynamo", reported, on the 28th May, that he was too worn out to make a third trip. The P.S.T.O. went on board and explained the gravity of the situation to the Master, and the Canterbury sailed at 0930 the next day. On her return voyage from Dunkirk she was bombed and damaged, and after landing her 1960 troops went into dock for repairs. In the 3 trips she made the Canterbury brought back 4,416 troops; her Master, Captain C. A. Hancock, was awarded the D.S.C. Personnel vessels not to be employed during full daylight On the 28th May, however, it had become apparent that development of the German air threat over the evacuation area, and the increasing artillery fire from shore batteries covering the sea approaches to Dunkirk, prohibited the employment of personnel and similar vessels during daylight, until the position was restored, and that evacuation from Dunkirk by day must for the moment be confined to warships and small vessels². It was not, therefore, until later in the day, that the P/V Royal Daffodil sailed for Dunkirk, and eight other personnel vessels and a hospital carrier³ received their sailing orders during the afternoon and evening. The northern Route Y was by this time in general use⁴, but ships proceeding from Dover to Dunkirk were ordered to use the southern and shorter Route Z, if the passage from Calais Bell buoy to Dunkirk could be made in darkness. N.O.I.C. Ramsgate responsible for servicing skoots In these circumstances some 20 skoots reached Dunkirk, or arrived off the beaches during the day and evening of the 28th May; others were on the way. Their speed varied, but most of them were very slow. Eight of them went into Dunkirk harbour⁵, and four to Bray beach⁶. The Abel Tasman, loaded with ammunition, the Alice and Kaap Falga, loaded with food, and three I This number includes 3 store ships, 3 motor vessels and a few freighters, coasters and tramps. 2 D.R. p. 4, para. 13. 3 The Scotia, Malines, Prague, Manxman, Royal Sovereign, Tynwald, Lochgarry, Killarney and the H.C.

CONFIDENTIAL. Дурашь 197 Biwlo/zn Subject: Narrative of Events of H.M.S. Caribia. - 456 From Lieut. JUNE D.H. Swift, R.N., The Gables, Halifax. Date 8th May 1940. To The Vice Admiral, Dover. (Copy to :- The Commander in Chief, The Nore.) Sir, I have the honour to submit the following narrative of events of H.M.S. Caribia in accordance with N.G.O. 448. The draft left Chatham at 0800 on the 26th May and took over the ship from the Dutch crew at Tilbury at 1500. In the afternoon victualling stores were embarked and the ship was then "wiped". This was satisfactorily completed at 0315/27. The ship was then ordered to proceed to Southend for compass adjustment and to Sheerness for storing and fuelling. Southend was reached at 0630 and during the forenoon the ship was swung for compass adjustment. On arrival at Sheerness at 1300 the ship moored and fuel and water were taken in and later naval stores and special stores embarked. The ship was then ordered to proceed to Southend for orders. At 0800/28 orders were received to proceed to Marte les Bains. On approaching Dunkirk at 2230 a drifter with 120 troops on board was closed. These troops were embarked and the drifter returned to the harbour for more. As these had not arrived after one hour the ship entered the harbour and secured alongside the eastern pier. The ship was then filled with a total of about 320 troops and at 0400 slipped and proceeded. At 1300/29 the North Goodwin examination vessel was hailed and orders were received to proceed to Margate. The troops were disembarked at Margate Pier at 1600 and provisions and stores were embarked. Orders were then received to proceed to the beaches east of Dunkirk, with "Zeus" in company as the latter's compass was unreliable. The ships slipped and proceeded at 1930/29.
