A short biography of the Author is below:

”To say that The Strange Adventures of Charles P. Dalwell meant a lot to my son Peter would be an understatement. The thought, passion and commitment that went into this book are, ironically, difficult to put into words. Peter dedicated his life to helping others, as well as finding ways to make the world a better place.”

Peter Bach was born in Brisbane, Australia, on 15 September, 1989. He was educated at Anglican Boys Grammar School — Churchie — in Brisbane from Year 5 through to Year 12. At the age of nineteen, Peter joined the Royal Australian Navy and after completing officers’ training at HMAS Creswell, joined the Australian Defence Force Academy (ADFA) in Canberra where he began a Bachelor of Business degree.

Peter was well-known, well-liked and respected by his friends and peers. He excelled in his academic studies as well as in leadership roles. Peter was a keen rower and represented both Churchie and ADFA Rowing.

Peter will always be remembered for being a courageous, caring young man who was kind, loyal, humble and passionate in whatever he decided to do. Having an incredible sense of humour, he had the ability to bring people together and get to know them for who they were. He was a confidant to many and always offered his support to those in need. Peter was a true humanitarian and strived to make the world a better place for us all to live in.

Peter’s legacy lives on in this book and in many other ways. His name has been added to the Wall of Honour at the Australian Defence Force Academy in Canberra, and in the ADFA rowing shed you will find a scull named in his honour, MIDN Pete Bach.
