As a matter of fact, yes.
Nearly all of the German military fought with honor and valor. They were very brave and in some cases fought against incredible odds. Yes, there was crimes against humanity on a gross scale, but you can also argue all sides did this.
At the same time the US continues to celebrate it's victory over Nazi Germany, but at the end of the day we invaded and fought a war against a country that had done nothing to us.
(Keep in mind that the Nazis slaughtered everyone in my grandmother's family except for her, which is how she came to the US.)
