There are plenty of memoirs from the German perspective that have been translated into English. However when compared to the number of sources that were written originally by English speakers, the number of German memoirs is puny. After years of reading the accounts of allied soldiers, airmen, and sailors, I became interested in reading the opposite point of view and have collected and read about 30 different accounts of German Soldiers, but I have yet to find any from the perspective of a child serving in the Hitler Youth or that of a pensioner pressed into service with the Volkstrumm.
Though I do not know of any, I highly suspect that they are out there, but more than likely the works are still in their native tongue, and have yet to be translated to English, etc.
Edit: Here's my Top 5 memoirs, for those looking to get into in a first person German perspective.
