Scope and Content

Various types of ships and boats arriving at South Coast port in England, carrying English and French wounded from Dunkirk. Men wrapped in blankets wave to the camera from a small fishing boat. British soldiers wearing helmets disembark from a boat. A soldier with both his eyes bandaged is helped from a boat. The camera pans across a bedraggled group of men (French soldiers? Most of them are not in uniform). A couple of the men smile and give thumb's up signals. More shots of men arriving on ships and disembarking; wounded men are removed on stretchers.
