There's nothing quite so satisfying as savoring someone else's shortcomings. That's why Great Blunders of WWII (VHS or DVD from the History Channel) is such a pleasure. Of special note are sections (using rare and never-before-seen footage) on how the London Blitz was started by accident, why the Japanese were so poorly prepared at the Battle of Midway and Hitler's failure to finish off the Russians at Stalingrad. You don't have to be smug to like this, but it helps.
