The German soldier did not treat the black US soldier any differently.
After the war the black soldier was known for his kindness and compassion t'wards the Germans,especially the children.
Maybe the discrimination experiend in their own country,effected their way how the treated the citizen of an defeated Germany

Hello,

It depends, you cant judge the Waffen-SS as a whole, but you can judge the individual, so it varies. In fact there were allegedly some 'blacks in the Waffen-SS'.

Cheers,
