Cold War spy gets guard of honor as ashes fly in for hero's funeral

Kukliński was the first Polish officer in NATO, but is probably more widely remembered for his controversial act of forewarning the Americans about the introduction of the Martial Law and the passing of Warsaw Pact secrets to the West during the Cold War. His urn was welcomed with a brief ceremony that included a military guard of honor. The date of Kukliński's funeral has not been set yet, but it is known that his remains will rest in the army section of the Powązki Cemetary in an avenue reserved for heroes. (Rzeczpospolita p.
