Thomas Jefferson was the first American President who stood up to Muslim terrorism. In his day it was the Barbary Coast pirates who were about as inhumane as today's Muslim terrorists. He sent the US Marines who developed and used leather collars to protect themselves from beheadings by swords during battles. Thus Marines became known as leathernecks.
