Subbing Coventration

Hi McKay!
I've been subbing your very fine entry on the Coventry Blitz. I've made a few minor changes and wanted you to have a look over it to make sure I haven't mangled anything. The entry is at A32619693
I was a bit confused by your description of a firestorm, so I tweaked it a little. A also added a footnote, as suggested in Peer Review, about the firestorm being unsuccessful because I didn't think it was apparent from your text.
Also, your header "In Memorandium", I've been totally unsuccessful in finding 'memorandium' in a dictionary. I thought maybe the word you were looking for was 'memoriam', but that seems to be an American word and I can't find it in a British dictionary, either. Is there another word you'd like to use?

Milos - I've added an I that shouldn't be there - the phrase is 'In Memorandum' - which I believe is Latin, and which commonly appears at the head of memorial articles.
Other than that I have no problem with the job you've done.
Thanks - McKay
