His latest, “In The Name of Honor,” explores the concept of honor, and how we can sometimes praise and demean it at the same time. Captain Paul Terry,of the Army’s JAG Corps, has been called upon to defend Lt. Brian McCarran after Brian shoots and kills his superior officer soon after they return from a tour of duty in Iraq.
