The question of the award of a plaque to the ships is well worth considering, but before coming to a decision on that we must consult other Departments concerned. there are other questions to he acided, such as meddlo, might DI have drafted a letter on the lines SH. on which the Minister write. to of 13th June 1940 (3) The Minister has agreed the draft letter as modified, and I will have copies roneoed for signature and despatch to the persons on the attached list, but I should be glad if first you would confirm that a letter should go to the "Spinel". If a letter does go it will have to be differently phrased in any case, but according to the footnote she was ordered to Dunkirk and took no part in the evacuation.
