Maybe "forgotten" is a wrong word to use here, but i guess most people associate this massacre with Polish Army officers being slaughtered by the soviet nkvd, they were not the only ones tho. Around 12.000 pre-war Polish Policemen were captured by the soviets after their invasion on September 17th, 1939. It’s hard to determine the exact number of Police victims in Katyn and other locations where these murders took place, since many bodies were not in a decent state for identification, but the estimated number is around 5000 (it might be higher than that tho). Soviet beasts didn’t spare anyone, not officers or even privates (posterunkowy). I was told that the Polish cemetery in Miednoje is the biggest Police cemetery in the world. Number of victims buried there is 6295 (Policemen, Border and Prison Guards, and also Military Policemen). I’m posting this as a tribute to these heroes who died for the country they swore to protect (to any edgy idiots wanting to cause a shitstorm about Police in the comments, pls go away).

    Are you challenging the verdict of the Nuremberg Tribunal? Is that legal?
    Do you know what the Third Reich planned to do to the Poles?
