notes: See also RG-60.0328 for duplicate footage. According to historian John-Paul Himka (May 2010), the scene takes place in 1941 in Lviv (Lwow), where victims of the NKVD killings were found at the prison. Jews were blamed and forced to"hel" but were also attacked by the locals. The building here should be identifiable, and the burn marks at the windows are likely to match photos. // Victims of the Russian massacre is the open field with corpses of soldiers with bullet holes - verify that they are Polish.
