Source: Moore (2002), p. 27, 44-46. From p. 27: "For many decades after the Second World War, discussion of Polish soldiers taken prisoner by Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia was dominated by the debate over the responsibility for the deaths of some 15,000 Polish officers at Katyn and other locations inside the Soviet Union.’ Discovered in mass graves by the Germans in 1943, their murder at the hands of the NKVD became a cause célébre "
