Children's Overseas Reception Board

(重定向自CORB)
Children's Overseas Reception Board (CORB) group bound for New Zealand, 1940
Royal Navy destroyer HMS Anthony rescues survivors from a lifeboat from the SS City of Benares which had been adrift for nine days after the ship sank on 17 September 1940.

The Children's Overseas Reception Board (CORB) was a British government sponsored organisation. The CORB evacuated 2,664 British children from England, so that they would escape the imminent threat of German invasion and the risk of enemy bombing in World War II. This was during a critical period in British history, between July and September 1940, when the Battle of Britain was raging, and German invasion forces were being amassed across the English Channel.
