Message text (Just a point here, the rest by mail)
If you don't speak German, I will be happy to accept your thanks on behalf of the American soldiers who died liberating your country.
Be happy and accept my thanks. But please share them with all the English, Canadians, Indians, French et.al. that fought side-by-side with US troops. And to the many Italian guerrilla soldiers that kept busy around 30% of Nazis army on the Italian front (did you know that all the major cities of northern Italy were free _before_ the Allied forces reached them?). And, yes, to the Russians, who of all payed the heavier price in lives, both soldiers and civilians, to the war effort, and were the first to reach Berlin.
Having said that, I wish also to say:
having fought on the right side in WWII is _no_ excuse or justification for anything;
that old refrain on "US that freed the world from Nazis", apart being grossly inaccurate, has gone sour: it was more than half a century (50+ years) ago;
I think that wasn't your intention, but beware: it is quite offensive, as it can be read like: "if you're not a Nazi, you have to agree to US POW".
