Default Temporarily operating a German registered glider in the US

However, for flying with a club or commercial operation, you need a field check out. As this will be done in a US registered 2-place trainer you will need a US pilot license.

This is not true. For a field check, you are flying as a student, with the instructor in back as pilot in command. No license at all is required. By the FAA, at least.
