“A Piece of the Action” was way better, with way better cameo appearances.
As for “Patterns of Force,” John Gill was a terrible historian. Calling the Nazi regime “efficient” showed he had no real understanding of Hitler’s Germany. In terms of war production, bureaucratic and military command organization, and war strategy, it was anything but efficient.
Quite so. No bludgeon is in any ways efficient, just like predation is not in any way the most efficient way for an organism to feed itself.

My favorite one.
“As for “Patterns of Force,” John Gill was a terrible historian.”
Yes, but the neo-marxists are abhorrent historians, insisting on forcing failed policies down our throats and blaming us when they don’t work. History repeats itself.
Patterns of Force is a good episode, too.

You got that right. It was intrinsically corrupt. Like the Crony Capitalism of the Obama Administration on steroids. Everything the military needed to fight the war from tires to radio parts to ammo was coming from some version of Solyndra.
