Place Date Hour Summary Reference
DUNKIRK Area 1   During the night 30th Sept/1st Oct there was very little enemy activity. It was observed however, that on several occassions when German aircraft passed over the German lines at night, ground flares went up and the aircraft came down low. It is practically certain that these planes were dropping supplies to the garrison and that the flares acted as a guide.
