Finally, I think if you have a peacetime army you have to keep general's busy and probably a good thing for them to do is think about things in detail, which writing manuals makes them do. In the US when generals get board military suppliers find things for them to do in foreign countries. In the case of the Bundeswehr, the situation had changed so much with lots of NATO allies and the USSR being a single front threat that it would be natural for it to be different from the Wehrmacht. As for aligning with the US; we had tank divisions and bases in Germany, so it would not have been that efficient for them to have radically different tactics fighting together. I would gamble money that the US generals wanted to dominate everything, just ask the British.
