Why are Generals writing books? Think about it for a second or more? Did Chesty Puller write a book? Sorry I do not read books like these. Where is Singlaub's book? Where is Col. Howards?

Actually, I know that Chesty Puller wrote a book (late '60s), and I believe General Singlaub may have written several books. I don't know Colonel Howard. Generals writing memoirs is as old as Caesar's commentaries.
