Ostaszkow - NKVD camp 95% inmate was murdered

Ostaszkow - NKVD camp, the so-called special because 95% was murdered was created for the Polish Police, Border Protection Corps and intelligence and counterintelligence employees. To hide the location of the camp, all correspondence was sent through Moscow and the only element distinguishing the camps were alphanumeric codes or post office box numbers (No. 37 for Ostashkov). A postcard sent from Ostaszkow by the constable Wawrzyniec Zygmański to Jezupol on February 2, 1940. Wawrzyniec Zygmański was born in Poznań in 1896. He was murdered in Miednoje in 1940. Correspondence with the special NKVD camps is extremely rare. The camps only existed from November 1939 to March-April 1940. Only one card per month could be sent. After the war, the Katyn massacre was hidden, hence people destroyed the evidence of this crime out of fear of the people's government. As a result, there is little documentation of the letters to the present day.
