Despite all their efforts, the enemy had won. Despite their bravery, their armies had been crushed, their Air Force lay in shreds, and their Navy was burning. They had no choice but to surrender, reliving the humiliation that they had handed out 22 years before.
But this was simply the beginning.
To the north, across a narrow strip of water, a nation was still taking in what they had been told four days before:
"What General Weygand called the Battle of France is over. I expect that the Battle of Britain is about to begin."
In the coming months, the British and their allies would defend Britain against the might of Germany's Luftwaffe and Italy's Regia Aereonautica. It was a battle that neither side could afford to lose.
(Feel free to post any events related to the Battle of Britain in this thread, any at all.)
