In "Number the Stars," the German soldiers show a lack of respect for the Johansens by treating them with disdain and suspicion, as they are occupying their country and enforcing oppressive rules. The soldiers invade their home, searching for hidden Jews, and display an arrogant demeanor, disregarding the Johansens' rights and dignity. Their actions reflect a broader attitude of contempt towards the Danish people, particularly those who resist their authority. This lack of respect highlights the oppressive nature of the occupation during World War II.
The number of German soldiers who served in the German Military in World War I was 13,250,000. The number of American military personnel that served during World War I was 4,743,826.

Because of an oversight and Military strategy
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.
Estimating the exact number of German soldiers killed by British forces during World War I and World War II is complex and varies by source. In World War I, it is estimated that British forces were responsible for the deaths of around 1.5 million German soldiers. In World War II, the numbers are less clear, but British military actions contributed to significant casualties among German troops, particularly during campaigns such as the Battle of Britain and the Normandy landings. Overall, precise figures can differ widely based on methodologies and the scope of the analysis.
The soldiers suspected the Johansens might know where Ellen's family had gone because Ellen had lived with the Johansens for a while and they were close friends, so the soldiers believed they might have information about her family's whereabouts. The Johansens were also involved in the resistance movement, which made the soldiers suspicious and led them to question the Johansens.
To give the news of the German news paper
The Johansens did not look in Lise's things in "Number the Stars" out of respect and to honor her memory. They wanted to preserve her belongings as a way to keep her close to them in spirit. It was a way for them to remember and cherish her, rather than invading her personal space.
The soldiers were German, from Germany.
