Shortly after passing Zuydecoote,
engine trouble reduced the speed to
15 knots.
In the neighbourhood of Nieuport buoy,
the same battery which had previously
fired at the Bourrasque again
engaged her. It was still not
possible to see the gun flashes, and
the crowded decks made it dangerous
to fire the ships guns. The salvos
fell regularly at about 3½ minute
intervals. To open the range more
quickly, course was set closely to
the border line of a French minefield
and speed was increased to 18, 20
then 25 knots.

When about 5 miles north of Nieuport
buoy, a shock was felt, followed by
one more violent; blackish grey
smoke rose from the torpedo firing
platform, and there was a big escape
of steam. The ship stopped, the
electricity failed. The escaping
steam ceased after 2 or 3 minutes and
then the safety valves spat.
The second officer was sent to report
the cause and seriousness of the
damage, and the chances of saving
the ship. It was difficult to say if
the ship was seriously damaged;
there was a breach in the deck, and
water was entering some compartments,
but it was not possible to get to the
engine room to assess the damage
there. A second examination showed

Lieut. Jordan sent in 2 reports of the operations carried
out by these ships at Dunkirk. These reports differ from
each other and from reliable reports of events with which they
deal.
Report No.1 (dated 7th June 1940 and addressed to Captain u/s,
Harwich) shows that the Fleetwood trawler flotilla
made only one trip to Dunkirk, and that was on the
1st June. (1) Five of the trawlers brought back
troops - over 800 French colonial troops, and
also 137 officers and men, survivors of the French
dr. Foudroyant. The sixth trawler towed back a
disabled Belgian trawler.
Report No. 2 (dated 29th October 1940, and addressed to the Port
Fishery Captain, Fleetwood), indicates that the
Flotilla was operating at Dunkirk on 30th May and
returned to Ramsgate a.m. 31st May. On p.m. 31st
May, the Flotilla was said to be again operating
off Dunkirk beachès, and when returning from
Dunkirk on the night of 31st May/lst June, was said
to have been present at the action in which the
French dr. Siroco was sunk. This however, is
impossible, because the Siroco was sunk on the
night of 30th/31st May.
The Report then records that the Flotilla made a trip to
Dunkirk on 1st June. It is considered that this trip was the
only one actually made by the Fleetwood trawlers. Also, it

by the stern. The Oranje went to her
assistance but was warned to keep
off as the bomber was returning. A
500 lb. bomb was then dropped about
50 yards on the Oranje's starboard
bow as she was leaving the Queen of

The Dorrien Rose went to the assis-
