Relatives of the Bloody Sunday dead are expecting the names of all those killed on the day to be cleared of blamed by Tuesday's release of the long-awaited Saville Inquiry report.
Families of the victims will form a silent procession in the morning from Londonderry's Bogside along the intended route of the original civil rights march to the city's Guildhall where the findings will be published.
Two relatives of each of those killed and injured will be given advance access under strict security arrangements, as will soldiers involved and some MPs and peers.
Secretary of State Owen Paterson has already received a copy.
Mickey McKinney, whose 27-year-old brother Willie was shot dead on the day, said families of victims and others were tense as they prepared for the findings.
"I think people are becoming very anxious, I think they're getting a bit nervous," he said.
"It's been a long time but it's here now and we just want to see it."
Mr McKinney said he remained hopeful about the outcome but insisted he and others cannot move on unless people are held to account for the shootings.
"We want the truth - a declaration of innocence and a recommendation that those responsible are prosecuted," he said.
"I think the worst-case scenario would be that [Lord Saville] wouldn't leave the blame with the Parachute Regiment and the Government, but I don't think that will happen."
