one week before the American liberators arrived, Col. Koch was arrested and executed in August 1943 by the Nazis

This seems to imply that the Americans liberated Buchenwald in August or September 1943. According to good sources, the liberation did not take place until April 1945.

 * You are right, I checked with . August 1943 was his arresting, the execution was don in 1945, one week before the liberation. I fixed the article. andy 08:56, 10 Oct 2003 (UTC)

First wife
Is there any reason why his first wife's name shouldn't be mentioned in this article? Rklawton (talk) 01:05, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

Second wife
The date of his marriage to Ilse contradicts the date in the German language version of this article. This may warrant some additional research. Rklawton (talk) 01:10, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
