A.R. (Tas) Browning

Avelon R (Tas) Browning, born in 1941 during WW2, grew up on a farm with limited income and left school at 14 to support his family. After nearly nine years in the Royal Australian Navy, including service in Vietnam and the Malay Peninsula, he joined his father in farming before retiring due to health issues. His interest in naval history led him to research and write about related humanitarian issues, culminating in his memoir "Where Life Falls" in 2020, exploring his convict ancestors' challenging lives in Great Britain.
