	"Dunkerque" Operational History
		Dunkerque began trials on 18 April 1936, when her superstructure was not fully complete, and with no light AA aboard.
		This ripped a large hole in the side of Dunkerque and was followed by the third torpedo exploding close to the bulkhead between compartments F and G. The hull was opened up across two compartments from bilge to upper deck and the ship quickly settled on the bottom.
		Dunkerque, lying in the Vauban basin, was blown up by her remaining crew and set on fire.

	Dunkerque
		The city is remarkably green for a major international port and industrial centre, handling bulk cargoes from all over the world, as well as being a ferry port for cars and freight with many lorries crossing between the UK and Europe.
		In the 17th century Dunkerque was the base for French "pirates" who successfully attacked other countries' ships in the North Sea.
		Dunkerque has an international reputation for its efforts to protect the environment whilst finding new jobs: landscaping separates industry from residential areas, and there are notable "green" initiatives, like the "wind farm" on the harbour wall.

	Otway Online: Dunkerque '95
		One of the things I was most interested in when I got my first Otway newsletter was the write up of last year's weekend trip to Dunkerque for a couple of gigs, and the suggestion that it may be repeated this year, even perhaps become an annual pilgrimage.
		There was a bit of a wait outside the hotels in Dunkerque whilst everyone got checked in, but that was OK because it gave everyone a chance to mingle and chat for a bit.
		We made the mistake of sitting in the front seats on the top of the double decker for this journey into town, and I had to duck several times because I was convinced the top of the bus was going to be sliced off going under some of the bridges.

		Logistics Supremo Richard Cotton had assured the hoteliers that we were all attending a Performance Art Seminar, and were there to enjoy a weekend of high culture and quiet, sedate entertainment.
		Time was now very tight and, much as we'd fancied a nice relaxed meal in a French restaurant, it was more important to get to the venue in plenty of time.
		This was a bigger place than last year's Sunday venue and they'd put on a fabulous buffet lunch - French stick gob-filler sandwiches and rice salad and stuff.
