Why Hitler deserves a Slot

We remember Adolf Hitler for being an evil S.O.B., and we should never forget that. But by being such a visible villain, he focused and shaped the course of history like very few people before and none since. (Scipio? Alexander? Attila?)

Hitler's other big contribution was to embrace technology in warfare. Blitzkrieg and new-tech weapons were essentially German inventions nurtured by Hitler's insatiable thirst for a technical hole card. We adopted this philosophy in the USA hook, line and sinker. Technowar has been our military's watchword since Hiroshima.
