Amtliches Material zum Massenmord von Katyn reports the unanimous findings of the international forensic commission to the German people - the Russians were responsible! Interestingly, few Allied countries believed the evidence the Nazis presented. In the 7 February 1944 issue of the American magazine TIME, there is a long multi-page article explaining how the Germans had used every sort of subterfuge to attempt to lay the blame for the Katyn Massacre on the Soviets! It took another 50 years before Soviet officials finally admitted responsibility for the massacre and the world knew the truth.
Polish Red Cross
In a forest called Katyn (pronounced Kah-teen) 20 kilometers west of the Soviet city of Smolensk, the government of the Soviet Union ordered the summary execution of over 12,000 Polish Army officers in March and April of 1940. Unable to hide the fact and unwilling to accept responsibility for one of the largest and most brutal executions in history, the Soviets successfully shifted the blame for the massacre to the German Wehrmacht.
The German Government responded by convening a blue-ribbon international forensic commission to study the site and the exhumed bodies, and determine the truth. This is the big rare rare 8 x 9-¾ inch, 332-page softcover Nazi book Amtliches Material zum Massenmord von Katyn (Official Evidentiary Results on the Mass Murder at Katyn) and it contains the outcome of this in-depth research as supplied by the the Nazi Foreign Office and published by the Deutsche Informationsstelle and printed by Deutschen Verlag in Berlin in 1943.
