The Mona's Queen III memorial service takes place on 29 May.

The Mona's Queen was one of the first vessels to make a successful round trip during the Dunkirk evacuatio, arriving back in Dover during the night on 27th May 1940 with 1,200 troops. The next day the ship returned to sea and was shelled off the French coast by shore guns but escaped damage.

In the early hours of 29 May, the Mona's Queen set sail for Dunkirk. However, the ship struck a magnetic sea mine outside Dunkirk harbour at 5:30am. The Mona's Queen sank in two minutes. Twenty-four of the crew were lost.

Each year on 29th May a service is held in memory of those that lost their lives.
