Each of us players also had to be actors; we were told what our country's aims were, and that we should act in trying to implement them. Thus the economic minister of Transania was insistent on holding out for peace, in opposition to most of his team members. It became clear that you learn more from a simulation when you are playing a well-defined role than when you are simply reacting personally, because the team objectives are often lost in the personal reactions.

For solace, apparently, he wrote some poetry and a short story about a young Communist guerrilla who learns...
Against such accomplishments, notably development of new missiles, aircraft and ordnance, McNamara's critics charge him with large debits. He burdened controversial proposals with a rigid approach that gained enemies in Congress. Partly for this reason, he was never able to fully implement good ideas such as reform of the National Guard and the Army Reserve...
