I've found references to three people of that name or similar. Since one of the questions was asking what army he was a General in, I'm inclined to believe that the person in question is John Gowans, who was not a general in any military force, but held the position of General of the Salvation Army 1999 - 2002. He did, however, serve in the British Army for two years - not long enough to achieve any General rank.

I see mention of a John Curtis Gowan, whose biography shows no military service. The closest thing he has is that he taught at Culver Military Academy.

There's also a John Hunter Gowan II, who was a loyalist in Ireland and was appointed head of a yeomanry corps (it has a law enforcement role), but no indication of military service in his biography.
