Message from Ian Gibson (Australia Cricket society):

I’m not sure how many of your members know Tony Dell, the only living soldier to have played test cricket, but regardless of whether or not you know him, you may be interested in his story. His autobiography is being launched by the Governor General on 27 August at a luncheon organised by the Australian Cricket Society. Any OTU members wishing to attend would be most welcome.
The details are here:

Kind regards,
