Events happening as part of Sept. 11 anniversary
By The Associated Press
The families of those who lost loved ones on Sept. 11, elected officials and other public figures will mark the 11th anniversary of the attacks on Tuesday. Some of the events:
Newly released army documents prove that two American POWs wrote encoded messages to Army intelligence after their 1943 visit to Katyn, pointing to Soviet guilt for the 1940 massacre
Government cover up began during WWII when the U.S. needed the Soviets to defeat Germany and Japan.
After decades of denial, Soviets confessed to the massacre in 1990
