I Did Not Know This

At the Iftar dinner, a White House sponsored Ramadan event, President Obama says "Islam has always been part of our American family." Obama also says "this has been especially true over the past 10 years," referring to the attacks on September 11, 2001.

Egg on my face but I didn't know that Islams were at Jamestown, at the Battle of Bunker Hill
and even at Antietam Creek. It's news to me they also help Davy Crockett defend The Alamo.
Did they help the country celebrate our 4th of July anytime, anyplace, anywhere? Except for some NBA or NFL football player not a single soul of Islam comes to mind.
