Our great generals were German?

Lee? Grant? Forrest? Jackson? Patton? MacArthur? Washington? Pershing? Johnston? Yeah those are all Germans! What the hell are you talking about?

Not sure what Sherman is?

It's just a statistical truth, my friend. The majority of America's greatest generals were of German, or mixed German, descent. You can make what you want of it or make nothing of it. That's up to you. It's just a fact. Same as the fact that nearly half of all America's Congressional Medals of Honor have gone to men with Scottish ancestry. Also 60%+ of American presidents have had Scottish blood running through their veins. What it means is your guess. If it gets under your skin... well, sorry.

You might find it interesting to note that nearly everyone in Europe (soon to be Eurabia) has German blood in them, because the Germanic tribes took nearly all the land in Europe at one time or another, even going so far as north africa and turkey. Even the word French comes from the German tribe of the Franks, who conquered and settled in that area. (How the Franks later became such silk-pantied little sissies is anyone's guess.)
