Are there any instances of German war veterans from Wermacht Kriegsmarine or Luftwaffe emigrating to the US and joining the US military?

You should try to search for an answer www.feldgrau.com to clarify that or better yet, try runing this name: Rudolf Salvermorser. It seems to me he did apply to the U.S. military during the fifties. Good Luck, if such a thing exists.
It may be possible. Luftwaffe General Adolph Galland flew the Messerschmitt 262 for Hitler, and after the war he went to Argentina and flew the Gloster Meteor for Peron. Also, many German soldiers joined the French Foreign Legion after the war. Still, the US may have had some rule against it. Good question.

What u s companies traded with Germany during the second war?
Almost all major Wallsteet buisnesses of that time. IBM, through the sister organization DeHoMag, provided the registration machines for the concentration camps. Standard Oil provided a lot of fuel and technology for the creation of synthetic fuel for the Wermacht and Luftwaffe in the first two years of the war. A large number of other companies such as Ford and General Motors provided many materials for the German militrary, including the Panzer tanks, Halftracks and much more. Note: most of these companies (and many more) were already active in Germany before the war, and a number even before Hitler came to power in 1933. High profits are claimed by many corporations and banks as reason why they were in Germany during that period, but the plans of Hitler were not very hidden, and most buisnesspeople working for US companies in Germany knew about the plans against the minorities (holocaust) and Hitlers plans for territorial expansion (lebensraum) and thus indirectly were aware of the comming war.
How many German soldiers survived after World War 2?
There were 18,200,000 listed personnel in all branches of the German military at the time (wermacht, luftwaffe, etc). Bearing in mind some of those were captured citizens of other nations, or volunteers not German, that number isn't 100% accurate. Over 5,500,000 of that number were killed. Well over 6,000,000 wounded. So of that number, roughly 6 million remained totally unscathed. All in all, roughly 13 million German soldiers survived the war.
