Horst Korsching (1879-1947) was one of several scientists captured by the German Freedom Front in 1946. It had been Reinhard Heydrich's hope that the scientists might build the GFF an atomic bomb. Karl Wirtz disabused Heydrich of that notion.

Nonetheless, Korsching and his fellows were held in the underground Alpine Redoubt until 1947. When American forces arrived, Heydrich escaped, and ordered Korsching and several other scientists killed.
