The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The evacuation was completed by 8 June.
- The evacuation was prompted by the Wehrmacht's assault on Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and France in the spring of 1940, which reduced the relative importance of Germany's iron ore provision and of Scandinavia.
- Several nights after the final military evacuation, the civilians of the town were rescued by British Sub-Lieutenant Patrick Dalzel-Job.
Why it is Common

ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 46 and blocks with 7: each hit it takes is cut by 3 %.
