I was wondering.....you guys got the Russians to speak Russian (Obviously) so are you able to make the Ostheer speak German?

No, most Germans are not good at English, they don't even teach it in school and everything on tv is dubbed.

Here's a small example:

Depends, I know a few Germans who speak English well (well atnest not totally broken), although they don't understand some words (like boring) which I need to explain to them the meaning, but I admire how they try and speak it, they aren't fond of it.
Where can I get vCoH German voice mod anyway?

You can change the language in vcoh but that changes the other voices and everything else to German too so i wouldn't recommend it.

But you can however use German speech files with the campaigns. http://forums.relicnews.com/showthread.php?t=222557

jup english is important subject in germany
kids start learning it at the age of 11
but i also think the ostheer should speak proper
german not the B.S. of the vanilla CoH
germans dont say "mein herr" in every sentence

That is not true, if you do it right you take some German speaking files and use it for the axis files it works perfectly, it still allows everyone else to speak whatever they need to speak, all the info is here along with all the language files needed newbielink:http://forums.relicnews.com/showthread.php?t=120920&page=1&pp=15 [nonactive]

I bet the developers just used the Russian sound file for the Soviets, so they can use the German sound file for the Ostheer, then they'll completely speak German. ;)

Lol, the first one is a commercial. Kids in Germany do learn English and French if they want to. But I must admit: There are a lot of Germans who can speak English very well .. and there are a lot of who can't. I've been learning English since I was 11 and even extended my knowledge with a Cambridge English course, though I don't know the meaning of all words. Some I have to look up, too.

I'd like the Ostheer to speak German, too. I think that many people, who don't speak or understand German, would love that, too.

Oh and to the part with "mein Herr". We actually don't say sir, but we say the rank of the officer.
Like:
You say: Yes, sir.
We say: Yes, Herr Feldwebel.
