Only At Came Back
From Calais Stand,
British Reveal
Troops Held Up Nuzis
Five Days, Shielding
Dunkerque Retreat
nv the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, Oct. 22.-Only Al men
returned to Britain from the epic
defense of Calais by 5000 British
and 800 French soldiers, the War
Office revealed yesterday in an un-
official account of the five-day
struggle that preceded the retreat
from Dunkerque.
The action, described by the nov
elist, Maj. Eric Linklater, served to
give Dunkerques defense a chance
to organize. 1t was led by Brig. c.
Nicholson.
After heavy fighting and bonn
bardment, with the town in flames,
the War Office sent Nicholson this
message:
Every hour you continue to exist
Is of the greatest help to the B. E. F.
The government therefore decided
that you must continue to fight, We
have the greatest possible admlra-
ton for your splendid stand
The account went on:
1.-THE Germans were in fever OF
impatience to take the town and
with their panzer division to drive
on to Dunkerque and inclose our
retreating army. But riflemen were
holding that deadly sweep, the tip
of the scythe had struck a stone
Refused to Surrender.
The Germans, under a flag OF
truce, demanded that Nicholson sur
render but he refused and the bonn
bardment was resumed.
"Wave after wave of dive-bomberS
attacked the Citadel. the quays and
the blazing streets of the old town.
We had no tanks left, and off shore
destroyers and air attacks were
only at intervals able to counter
lombard and neutralize the Ger
man batteries. Our defensive posi-
ton fell in ruins and the enemy
used tanks in close fighting from
street to street" the account reads.
The Germans gradually moved in
and small parties which hoped to
escape during the night found that
darkness had disappeared before the
blaze of fires.
Al Men Taken Off.
The Germans we're too tired to
mop up effectively and on the fifth
night signal light was seen by a
patrol ship which entered the har-
Dor and took off At men. A naval
landing party met only the chal-
lenge of the German sentrieS.
mo one seems to have come back
who can tell about the actual fight
ing in the town itself" the account
says. Until all their strength was
spent and their last round fired, the
rifemen fought on against enormous
odds and they could have had no
hope of help or of victory. But in
the foul heat of the burning town
they fought with unfailing courage
and by the fury of their death
struggle they held back from Dun
kerque the claw of the German at
tack"
Nicholson is among the missing.
The last message from his wireless
transnitter came to Dover at 4:30
pm. on the fourth day of the battle.
It was a plea for more guns.
