Rabbi says Satchel's father was killed by the Germans on Armistice Day. That would have been the end of World War I, November 11, 1918, or the holiday celebrated on its anniversary. The end of hostilities with Germany in World War II was in May 1945 and was referred to as V-E (Victory in Europe) Day in the United States.

This was an exemplary episode in the series. It seemed to primarily be a pastiche of The Coen's The Man who Wasn't There, which was also in black and white and was set in generally the same time period. I think both reviewers and fans alike forget that this show is paying direct homage to The Coen brothers in a myriad of ways. If you are not in touch with their filmography then you are left out of the loop. People are alienated by the monochromatic choice of visuals because they don't realize that it is referential in nature. The episode also has many allusions to O Brother Where Art Thou as well, emphasizing a sublimity of nature and dualistic split between bipartisan views of race. This season specifically does an excellent job at exploring some of my favorite aspects of the Coen's dense body of work. Fantastic execution.
