I checked my answer, because I have the awesome responsibility of posting the correct answer tomorrow. I have almost zero information about the author other than what dates and places of birth and death, and dates and rank of military service.
Congrats for tomorrow. What an honor!!
Forgive my flippant answer to you, I was more inclined to give a cryptic clue for the CG.
I pulled out my 1976 edition of “Who was Who in American History-The Military” to look up this author. He’s not listed.
