ST:TNG:59 - "The Hunted" (Stardate: 43489.2) - this is the 11th episode of the 3rd season of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
This episode is about government conditioning of their soldiers - basically because they were conditioned, when they were finished with their tour of duty, they couldn't cope with the new post-war way of life and were thus sent to a correctional prison facility on Luna V where they can never leave (as their government says "for their own protection).
Of course this episode is a commentary on conditioning by governments of our own past and present and how it's wrong.
Guest starring is the talented actor James Cromwell as Prime Minister Nayrok (he would later return to the Star Trek universe in the TNG episodes "Birthright Parts I and II" as Jaglom Shrek and Star Trek: First Contact and the "Enterprise" pilot episode "Broken Bow Part I" as Zephram Cochrane).
