 BBC - WW2 People's War - Kent during WW2 - A1084998
With the British and French armies cornered by the advancing German army near Dunkirk in 1940, Kent became the focus of the nation's attention as, between 26 May and 3 June, more than 330,000 troops were rescued from the beaches in one of the most astonishing operations of the war.
Kent's towns were bombed throughout the war and casualties on the ground were often heavy in spite of the fact that thousands of people went underground to avoid the raids.
Kent once again found itself on the front line and the RAF, gunners and balloon handlers fought hard to limit the damage on the ground.
