Check this out! For those of you who are history buffs, you understand the significance of the Dunkirk Evacuation in WWII.

He could have wiped all 300,000 of them out, and probably left the Allies unable to fight for some time. Instead, he ordered his forces to rest.

During that brief window, the British mobilized every ship they had, including a great number of civilian craft, and managed to remove all the troops from the shores of France to the safety of England. "

 

Unfortunately, we need to wait until the summer of 2017 to see this film, but I'm willing to bet it's gonna be a great one!
