Wehrmacht Volksgrenadiers
Why the simple conscript? Their abundance at early game situations and the ability to quickly put some smg's on the line give you the ability to rush a quick mg or similar special weapon, or god forbid a sniper, forcing your enemy to quickly reproduce it and slowing tech progress, or taking the hit and trying to scrabble for territory with limited capping power.
The volks power is only enhanced by time as infantry upgrades via the kampf center give you a extremely cheap 3 vet squad wielding deadly mp40's and a cheap yet effective panzerfaust for the odd armored car or to delay the heavier stuff until you can get your big guns out. Secondly they are a great unit to run up and steal mg's or mortars abandoned by you or your foe.
Yes the conscript is imho far superior to any other infantry unit in the vannila game.

Panzer Grenadiers
They are cheap, early game infantry, capable of tearing Riflemen and Infantry Sections to pieces, if used correctly. They can be upgraded extensively, with panzershrecks, Gewehr 43's and MP44's, which makes them versatile for every job and situation.
They ay be few in number early game, but can be upgraded to 4-man squads, can repair vehicles (even though it's kinda crappy) and can be upgraded with the advanced repair, so they can repair as well as their Luftwaffe infantry comrades. They are fairly expendable, 45 MP for a new replacement, which is kinda steep. But think about the 450 MP pricetag a British infantry section comes with? unlike the Panzer Grenadiers that cost 250 MP. (Cheapest of all the starting combat infantry)
They can also be equipped with AT grenades and incinderary grenades, which makes them useful against garrisoned infantry, and infantry taking cover. The AT grenades make the PG's obviously useful against armour, light and heavy, and the grenades are devastating against emplacements, particullarly those damed British MG and 17 pounder emplacements.
To conclude, they are very versatile, cheap, expendable and prove to be deadly foes against any opposition they might come across.

American Infantry
at only 250 and very versatile they are arguably the most practical unit in the allies.
They can use Bars to Suppress, Sticky bombs to kill tanks that think inf are weak against armored (catches em by surprise every time)
They get the standard grenades
If your inf Doctrine you can use them to plant mines and sandbags.
they come with a hefty 6 people, more than the British, Werch, AND PE,
And they have the Best Voice Lines
"GOD DAMNIT JOHNNY PICK UP YOUR RIFLE"
"Get your Ass up on that MG Soldier!"
"GIs GOD DAMNIT"

you start of with one Flamer and with all the Pioneers you cap all the munitions, and BAM like +100 Munitions a Min
Fallschrimjager
Can deploy anywhere, can be upgraded with an effective Assault Rifle and can camo while in cover. Fire grenades and a Panzerfausts.
Only draw back is that they very expensive, the same price as a Sherman.
