That might be the publisher’s choice.

I thought of that, but the author can always step up. Anyway, even after all these years I still get bothered by that fraud Jack Coughlin, author of 'SHOOTER: The Autobiography of the Top Ranked Marine Sniper'. The guy was apparently a Marine combat veteran, but he was never a sniper. I'm leary of guys who tell war stories, and learier of guys who tell war stories for profit in books with titles that proclaim they are "top ranked" or "most lethal in history".

You’re right, and that was a secondary thought in my mind.

I hear ya’ regarding story tellers. There’s another book out that talks about SEAL 6. A few flags went up as I listened to the author being interviewed.

G’night!
