He was no doubt very grateful to be in American hands.

He is smiling because he has made it to the Americans without being killed.

Did you notice how he started to salute and quickly changed it to a wave?

They got to go home. They didn’t die for hitlers false promises. I’d be smiling too.

I like the Kraut General smiling like it is all fun... I remember reading about one such surrender ceremony. I wish I could find a link for it. Anyway, it was May 1945 and a German general was surrendering his unit to a British general. The German was all smiles as he handed over his sword to the Britisher.
The British general was so enraged over the German's attitude that he took the sword and broke it over the German's head.
