Wehrmacht -- Army. The breast insignia is the tell tale. He looks like an old senior NCO (possibly a conscripted WWI 'retread') who is happy to be out of the shooting war and gladly offering Intel in fluent English. That of course is all speculation based upon everybody's casual body language

Might have been a senior NCO before but he is wearing junior officer rank.
