Correct (for Germany) - although this is only a fairly new requirement.

For the US, it's mandatory to enter (and technically, leave) using your US passport.

For the UK, it's NOT mandatory to use your UK/EU passport - however if you enter using (say) a US passport then you are entering as a visitor, and must meet the requirements of your entry, such as leaving within the X days you are given.

Personally I'd suggest using a UK/EU passport if you have one, if only because the lines are generally much shorter, and very much faster!
