1 potential matching record has 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.

EVELYN ROSE

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

OFFICE OF
FLAG OFFICER COMMANDING, DOVER.
8th January 1941.
My dear Dick,
With reference to your letter of the 21st of December
1940, all these ships were mentioned in Vice Admiral Dover's list
of ships taking part, though "Evelyn Rose", "Gava", and "Velia" are
shown as "Miscellaneous H.M. Small Craft", and the rest as "Other
British Ships".
I attach a list of ships for your ready reference.
There is no entry in the special Dynamo register concerning the
report rendered by the Senior Examination Officer Fleetwood, so we
think it failed to arrive. I referred the paper to Naval Officer
in Charge Ramsgate who has made enquiries but regrets that no
information is available concerning the recommendations for the
Fleetwood Trawlers mentioned. I am sending a copy of this to
Worthington.
Yours ever,
L.V. Morqan
