I recommend this book

Code of Honor is a morality play exploring the implications of one man, a politically promoted general, who puts himself outside the code of honor and ethics of the professional American military officer.

Major General Lane commands a US Army division deployed in Columbia to assist the government in its fight against the FARC insurgency. General Lane enforces an extreme version of loyalty and professional ethics on his officers but ignores ethics and professional conduct as they apply to him.

The result is confusion, unnecessary death, defeat, and dishonor.
