This Day in the History of Waging War Against Civilians
On this day in 194o, German planes bombed Coventry, England, a city with very little military significance, destroying or damaging much of the city. One of the big churches, a cathedral, was left bombed out there with a new engraving on the wall, simply "Father Forgive." A beautiful thought from a very ugly act.
