[The new cemetery in Katyn: a permanent monument to the murder of Polish officers, including pharmacists. The authors' own report].
Polish army officers were called up in 1939, due to German aggression against Poland. Those who were in eastern Poland which had been occupied but the Soviet Union since September 17th 1939, were captured by the Red Army and committed to the NKVD. They were imprisoned in several camps and murdered (nearly 25.000 persons) in April and May 1940. The prisoners from the camp in Kozelsk (over 4.400 persons) were shot in Katyn forest near Smolensk. The authors went there on April 19, 2000 and were attracted by the commemorative plaques to over 60 murdered pharmacists.
