From the first German settlers who settled in Philadelphia during the latter part of the 17th century to the countless others who left their German homeland to settle throughout this Nation. German Americans have contributed much to the growth of our United States. These immigrants brought with them their skills as craftsmen. as entrepreneurs. and as scientists and. most importantly. a willingness to work hard. These skills and their commitment to hard work helped to forge our great Nation. German Day is celebrated throughout the Nation on various days in recognition of the central European immigrants who brought their proud heritage to a new land of promise. and together with others. built our great Republic.*
