This came up in a convo with a friend of mine this weekend and I had no idea... Did the topic of Nightcrawler being German and Magneto being a holocaust surviver ever come up in the comics?
We went off on a number of ways we WISHED it would have played out, but seriously, did it? I ask about the comics because if it came up, I'd imagine it wasn't in the cartoons...

I don't believe it ever did, however on nightcrawler, the whole mob scene where proffesor x saves him has been played out as his origin in everything, it was even in giat sized x-men number 1

It's known that Nightcrawler is german in the comics. As for Magento being a holocaust surivor, I think that is only for the movie universe.

Multiple times. In fact, I believe Prof. X saves Nightcrawler from an angry mob in Germany when he recruits him. Nightcrawler's dialogue reflects his German heritage, however, I haven't picked up an X-Men related book since shortly after Jim Lee left the series so I don't know how Marvel treats him now.

why would it even matter? Unless Nightcrawler wore the Red Skulls costume on a regular basis.
Not all Germans were nazi's...

No, not the way you're thinking, where Magneto (and yes, he was a holocaust survivor in the comic books) is angered at Nightcrawler for being German.
Both facts of their origins are brought up many times, but never in that context.

Exactly. The Nazis were the political party Hitler started, National Socialists or something like that. Most Germans were not Nazis. Most members of the german military were not Nazis. Very few ordinary German citizens were. My grandmother was an American married to my German grandfather and stuck in Germany during WWII. My grandfather was never a member of the Nazi party and did not like Hitler. My grandmother snuck food to a Jewish neighbor when the Nazis stated limiting the rations Jews could recieve.

And in actuallity Nigthcrawler was not German, his father was from another dimension. He had a German accent cause he was raised by german folks.
