Samuel M. Chamberlain ’09, who helped to organize the event, said the change was an improvement. “We might do this in future classes,” he added...
...Death (Trace Adkins) points Malone to the future. From these wraiths we learn that pacifists like Malone would have been responsible for the continuation of slavery into the 21st century (because they opposed the Civil War) and for the Holocaust (you know why).

Terrified by intelligence reports that exaggerated the reach of the German Luftwaffe, Chamberlain agreed to hand over 3 million Sudeten Germans, even though doing so was more likely to embolden Hitler than placate him.
