Note	(3z(BLuck is a clear theme throughout Allan May?s life: the lottery of being called up for National Service, surviving the Battle of Long Tan, a wealth of lucky escapes, as well as fortunate wins. Growing up in the Brisbane seaside suburb of Wynnum, Allan May?s childhood was where he learned the art of survival. It prepared him well for [h]is Army role as a forward scout. Was this also part of his luck? Had he experienced a different childhood would he have survived the Battle of Long Tan? Infused with humour, larrikin escapades and an abundance of ?near-misses?, The Luck of the Draw is a pacey, warts-and-all story which makes for a compelling read.(S3(B--Back cover.
