The Military, My Life: 43 years-5 months-25 days: Autobiography” is Gen Frimpong’s fifth book. Starting  from his primary school days across Ghana, his secondary education and enlistment into the Ghana Armed  Forces in 1970, he discusses his long career in the military, community service, diplomatic life, incursions  into academia, retirement in 2014 after over forty-three years’ service, and life after retirement.

He also discusses his sojourns in Nigeria, Kenya, Uganda, Canada and the USA. Maj Don-Chebe states in  the Foreword,

“For the officers who have schooled peacefully and smoothly in the Ghana Armed Forces, spare a thought  for officers like Brig Gen Dan Frimpong, who blazed the trail and suffered all kinds of indignities to his person and unholy twists in his career path. His numerous runs-in with the Military High Command is a  subject that should inform commanders at various levels that, a knowledge-based and future-focused  Armed Forces needs a certain kind of officer hungry for knowledge and determined to compete with the  best inside and outside.

The autobiography of Brig Gen Dan Frimpong should give hope and confidence to young persons, inside  and outside the Military to continue to pursue their dreams and aspirations. Any setback can only be  temporary; persistence, perseverance, determination and grit should drive you forward.”
