Which scenario would an Allied solider involved in the Dunkirk pocket be most likely to survive the war? Evacuated to Britain or captured by the Germans?

by Inceptor57

Would the evacuated 300,000 soldiers from Dunkirk have a lower or higher chance of surviving the war compared to those captured and sent to POW camps by the Germans?

I imagine that the 300,000 would still be sent to fight in the next five years of the war, so their chances may be lower than captivity, but I want to know if there are data for this.
