Delphine, aged 3, was one of the victims of air raids on Coventry during World War Two.
The city suffered numerous attacks with the heaviest ones on 14/15 November 1940 and during Easter week of 1941. Click these links to find out more:

The "Coventry Strasse" [ Coventry Street ] sign was found by the runway at a Nazi airfield captured by Allied forces during the liberation of Europe. Clearly the Luftwaffe was proud of its handiwork. It can be seen in the "Peace & Reconciliation" Gallery at the Herbert Art Gallery & Museum in Coventry along with the defused incendiary bombs and the map with "Korn" on it [ Korn was the German codename for Coventry for the 14 November 1940 raid ]
Many of the images in this video were scanned from "The City We Loved" and "Coventry Under Fire" which were published during the conflict.
Once again, many thanks to Rob Orland who has allowed me to use images from his personal collection.
