Fascinating that Germans themselves would end up in the concentration camps that their govt built for jews 
I must admit that I didn't know any of this. I was so surprised that I had to fact check it cause I thought it was fake news.

As they say, the Victors re-write history.
Just like most people don't know that blacks, indians, Arabs and other people of color fought for the Reich through out the war. But they like to erase that part.

Maybe.
People don't understand the "German question" and just how large Greater Deutschland was/is i.e. the germanic speaking people of Europe included Czech Sudetenland, Austria, Prussia's massive extent into Poland, much of Switzerland, Alscace region in France etc. People don't understand the "German question". Aber wir doch oder? Germany did not have to fight when it entered some of these regions. They were welcomed as uniters of the German nation.
""The German Question" was a debate in the 19th century, especially during the Revolutions of 1848, over the best way to achieve a unification of all or most lands inhabited by Germans.[1] From 1815 to 1866, about 37 independent German-speaking states existed within the German Confederation. The Großdeutsche Lösung ("Greater German solution") favored unifying all German-speaking peoples under one state, and was promoted by the Austrian Empire and its supporters."

The German Confederation in 1820.
The Kingdom of Prussia within the German Empire between 1871 and 1918
Prussia was split between modern day Germany and Poland; hence ethnic German Poles.

If you know you know. Germany lost a fair part of its territory after WWII.

Meet Henry Johnson, The Heroic WWI Soldier Nicknamed ‘Black Death’ - Because of Them We Can
His heroism defied the odds! He was born William Henry Johnson around July 15, 1892 in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, the U.S. Army reports. Moving to New York as a teen, he worked various odd jobs as a chauffeur, coal laborer and soda mixer before enlisting in the U.S. Army on June 5, 1917...
