It took an invasion by thousands of Hitlers best storm troopers before Greece was finally occupied. But Greece could not be defeated. While we celebrate Greek Independence Day. it is also fitting to recognize the great contributions made by Greek Americans to this country. Greek immigrants began to arrive in America more than 300 years ago. although their numbers were not large until the 1890s. They settled in almost every part of this Nation. and have excelled in every walk of life. from government and business to entertainment and the arts. I am proud to be a Greek American. and proud of the success that Greeks have enjoyed in the United States.
