In less than three weeks, hitler achieved the most extraordinary military triumph of modern times: holland, luxembourg, and belgium had been overrun; the french army was about to collapse; and the entire british expeditionary force, which had been sent across the channel to help stop the germans, was trapped against the sea at dunkirk.
Unless they could be rescued, britain would be left without an army.
