That's not unusual although it is despicable, there are turncoats and traitors in every society. People who will gladly sacrifice their morals for the promise of favourable treatment.
It is known that there were an estimated 150,0000 "half Jews" in Hitlers army too, and an undisclosed number of full Jews, who kept a very low profile, for obvious reasons.
The Cover shot on the booklet "The Ideal German Soldier" featured half Jew Werner Goldberg.
Among others were people like Field Marshal Erhard Milch.

In one of the famous anecdotes of the time, Goering falsified Milch's birth record and when met with protests about having a Jew in the Nazi high command, Goering replied, ``I decide who is a Jew and who is an Aryan.''

Quote:
Cambridge University researcher Bryan Rigg (who studied at the Ohr Sameach Yeshiva in Jerusalem) has traced the Jewish ancestry of more than 1,200 of Hitler's soldiers, including
Two field marshals, (God knows how many Jews they killed)
Fifteen generals, (God knows how many Jews they killed)
Two full generals, (God knows how many Jews they killed)
Eight lieutenant generals, (God knows how many Jews they killed)
Five major generals, "commanding up to 100,000 troops. (God only knows how many Jews they killed) " |
There is also the story and film (Europa, Europa) about Shlomo Perel who falsified his papers and served in Hitler's Army.
