Poland is mourning its president. Lech Kaczynski and another 96 passengers died in a plane crash on their way to ceremonies in Katyn marking the 70th anniversary of the Soviet-era massacre of thousands of Polish officers.Among the dead is Andrzej Skapski, who recently appeared in a 'European Journal' report. When Andrzej Skapski was 2 years old, his father was arrested by the Soviets. When mass graves were discovered in Katyn in 1943, Andrzej's father was one of the victims to be identified. Skapski had been looking forward to attending this year's memorial ceremony in Katyn.
