The Channel Dash Association
The Channel Dash is a tactical success for the Germans by getting three major surface warships back relatively safely to German waters (the Gneisenau’s mine damage will not be repaired and she is headed for the scrap yard).
Strategically, it is a confession by the Germans that they will never again send surface ships into the North Atlantic. To that extent, Britain has won a victory in the Battle of the Atlantic.
