German Americans (German: Deutschamerikaner) are Americans of German descent. They form the largest self-reported ancestry group in the United States, outnumbering the Irish and English. They account for 50 million people, or 17% of the U.S. population.
...
After two or three generations, German Americans adopted mainstream American customs—some of which they heavily influenced—and switched their language to English.
...
President Franklin D. Roosevelt did not hesitate to name Americans of German ancestry to top war jobs, including General Dwight D. Eisenhower, Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, and General Carl Andrew Spaatz.
...
Today, most German Americans have assimilated to the point that they no longer have readily identifiable ethnic communities.
