As the fleet approached Dunkirk, even seasoned naval officers were taken aback. At that time, almost 11,000 feet high and one mile wide flames were conflagrating from the two million ton oil tank of Dunkirk. The air reeked with an unholy compound of smoke, putrid horseflesh of the French Cavalry, rank tobacco, cordite, garlic, and rancid oil. Sometimes, the seeming nearness of the waiting ships caused scores of lined-up men to throw aside all caution and rushed into the waters-often into the open arms of the death. Sometimes, when a number of men aboarded small, boats the boats used to overturn and soldiers sunk like bullets in the churning water. Thousands of troops were near starvation.
