re: #20 Cheese Eating Victory Monkey

On a different issue, where can I find documents about the Soviet transfer of Polish army soldiers to the Siberian Gulag in 1939 (right after the division of Poland)? A few of my relatives crossed the new border splitting Poland in two, refused Soviet citizenship, and got sent to prison.

If you want just to read the documents in English, I don’t know if I can help. I’m sure some of them were translated, but since for my purposes I need only Russian original texts, I wouldn’t know where to find the translations. If you have anything specific in mind, I can look it up since quite a lot of documents were published (in Russian), as well as I can ask around since I’m acquainted with researchers dealing with the topic (e.g. the “Memorial” society).

BTW, it’s not simply the Poles, it’s the refugee Jews as well, about 90,000 of them.
