Dunkirk

SUN 26 MAY 1940
U.S. Minister in Uruguay Edwin C. Wilson, in telegram to Secretary of State Hull, reports tension between the Uruguayan and German governments over the former's searching homes and businesses of Germans and charges by the latter that the Uruguayan police were employing "rough methods" in their investigations (see 30 May).

Operation Dynamo: Evacuation of British, French, and Belgian troops from Dunkirk, France, begins, aided by poor flying weather that limits German aerial operations (see 4 June).
