I remember seeing a photo for a black soldier in an Afrika Korps uniform. Were there actual black soldiers who fought in combat for the Wehrmacht?

I believe Mark Felton did a video on this in addition to there being Arab paratroopers and the many different groups in the SS

Maybe it is a photo of “Mathias” (SA POW Corporal Mathew Letuku) wearing German military clothing for personal protection. He was a batman in the JG 27, not a soldier.
