Note that Heinlein told the story of one attempt at a Patrol dictatorship in his story "The Long Watch," about the martyrdom of John Ezra Dahlquist, one of the Four saints of the Patrol. It was published in his collection The Green Hills of Earth, but I don't think it's really part of the Future History; Space Cadet, at any rate, certainly is not.

Yes! A short but noble story; it's been too long since I read it.
