Notes

I found this picture to have been published in Picture Post August 10, 1940 (Vol 8 No 6). The caption there read:

The Spirit Behind the New British Army. British and French soldiers help one another up into the sandhills behind Dunkirk. This defeat turned into victory has become the symbol animating the vast new armies now being armed and trained in Britain.
