This is one of those plausibility/workability details. It has occurred to me to insert a secondary character in a book I'm writing who is a German prisoner of war who decided to stay in the U.S. after the end of World War II. I'm not sure if this is possible or if the applicable rules and conventions demanded his repatriation or prevented his migration. In addition, if it is possible, how he'd get from the South (where apparently most Axis POWs were interned) to my setting, Bakersfield, CA.
