Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsCan you help me identify this TV episode?
An American man, now an adult, had a father who died as a WWII sailor. THe son was a kid then.
The son got to fooling around with a ham radio and somehow or other averted the father's death. I believe
the father was in a sub that the Germans torpedoed.
So--all is well, right? The father survived the war.
Well, yeah, but then you see Nazi soldiers on the streets, occupying the US of A.

I know every episode of those shows and it is not any of them.
Maybe a Night Gallery?
Any idea if it was color or not?
If B&W there is still One Step Beyond and Tales from Tomorrow.

place in Cleveland, IIRC. The name escapes me, though. Thinking, thinking...
