Agreed. I went to a specialist recently for circulation problems; when I spoke some Russian which I had learned during deployment, his hottie Moldovan nurse practically threw herself at me (I’m 65 & married).
As for German immigration before 1910, did they know something we didn’t about war approaching? Kaiser Bill must have been a bigger jerk than we thought.

German immigrants were coming here before the AMerican Revolution, and are the reason we don’t have an official language (the colonial leaders felt the Germans wouldn’t support the war for independence if it was to be an English-only country). When Hitler wanted “living space” for Germans, he was repeating a theme that was over 200 years old.
