RE: Introducing an exchange student from Germany to Lincoln
"German-Americans were the largest ethnic contingent to fight for the Union in the American Civil War. More than 200,000 native Germans served in the Union Army, notably from New York, Wisconsin, and Ohio."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Ame..._Civil_War and a piece of trivia I didnt know ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Palatines (General Custer had German ancestors possibly from the Palatines) “The honest man, tho' e'er sae poor, Is king o' men for a' that” Robert Burns |
