During WWII a small number of US servicemen had "Dog Tags" marked with "H" for Hebrew were and some of these were executed on the spot. There were also a few (about 300 to 500) that were removed from POW camps, placed into labor camps, maltreated and some were placed into the exterminaction camps. The figures are unclear, but the consensus on both the German and American side is that "a few hundred Jewish servicemen were exterminated". Several thousand US citizens were trapped in Germany when the war began. Some were Jewish, and many were unable to escape. _______ On the whole, the Nazis were cautious in their treatment of U.S. and British and Commonwealth servicemen taken prisoner. However, many Jewish American prisoners of war went sent to Stalag IX-B, where they were treated extremely badly. Some were sent to Berga (Thuringia), which was a sub-camp of Buchenwald.
