Corrected entry: During the Dunkirk beach scene the soldiers are heard singing "(There'll Be Bluebirds Over) The White Cliffs of Dover". The evacuation at Dunkirk took place in May 1940, but the song was not written until 1941.
Correction: The song the soldiers are singing is "Dear Lord and Father of Mankind." It's a hymn with words taken from a longer poem written in 1884.
