You're right: I missed the part of the “The U.S.
Army brought the leading citizens of Ohrdruf to tour the facility, which
turned out to be part of the Buchenwald network of concentration
camps.“ and “The morning
after the tour, the mayor of Ohrdruf killed himself.“

At least, some people took responsibility.  I doubt any American, least of
all Kristi Noem, will take any responsibility or feel any guilt about the
current atrocities.
