FILE - In this July 28, 2008 file photo a woman sits in front of the shrine where the heart of Polish-born composer Frederic Chopin rests in the Church of the Holy Cross, in Warsaw, Poland. Polish medical experts say Wednesday, Sept. 17, 2014, that the preserved heart of 19th century composer shows signs of tuberculosis and possibly some other lung disease. The findings seem to corroborate Chopin's 1849 death certificate which said that the Polish-born musician died at the age of 39 in Paris from TB. (AP Photo/Alik Keplicz, File)

People light candles at the Warsaw Uprising monument in Warsaw, Friday, Aug. 1, 2014. On the 70th anniversary of the Warsaw Uprising, Poland is honoring the fighters and victims of the rebellion against Nazi Germans by laying wreaths, sounding sirens and singing insurgent tunes. On Aug. 1, 1944, thousands of poorly-armed city residents rose up against the German forces to try to take control of the city ahead of the advancing Soviet army. They held on for 63 days before being forced to surrender. Almost 200,000 people were killed. The Nazis expelled the survivors and set the city ablaze. (AP Photo/ Czarek Sokolowski)

In this photo taken in Warsaw, Poland, Tuesday, July 8, 2014, Kazimierz Mikos, 84, shows buildings in Sienna street where in the 1944 Warsaw Rising he had his insurgent lodgings. As a 14-year-old boy Mikos was a guard and messenger in Warsawâs struggle against the occupying Nazi Germans. He will be among hundreds of fighters attending the ceremonies of the 70th anniversary of the ill-fated struggle that led to the destruction of some 30 percent of the cityâs substance and the loss of some 200,000 lives.
