One of the most amazing facts of the Second World war is that people of many foreign countries fought in the German army as Wehrmacht soldiers.

Turkish

Koreans


Jews. Mostly as guards of concentration camps. Jews of course were not foreigners. They were as German as anyone else.

It would be interesting to understand why a Jew would act as a guard in a a concentration camp; a place where his kith and kin were persecuted. The most opportunistic types. Those who prefer to survive without any principles, perhaps?

Japanese

What were the Japs doing here? They could have well served in their nation's army. Some kind of exchange? Or were there Japanese people in Germany in large numbers?

This Japanese is an officer in the German army

Indians. Efforts of Subhash Chandra Bose.

Georgians and Azerbaijanis


Chechen

Bosnian Muslims



Africans

Hitler shrewdly maintained good relations with the Arab world
