A short list of famous cricket families would have to put the Chapels at the top. Following the path shown by Victor York Richardson, his three grandsons Ian Chappell, Trevor Chappell and Greg Chappell became successful cricketers. Jonathan Chappell, a son of the latter John Greig, was not a cricketer but was associated with sports. Jonathan was a professional American baseball player.

However, Jonathan's other brother, Stephen Chappell, another son of Greg, had all the potential to become a cricketer but diverted his attention elsewhere. However, senior Greg was not discouraged. Seeing his son's inclination to fly in the sky, he was admitted to the defense force. It was that boy who brought Greg his glory. Stephen is now the head of the Australian Air Force!

A notice published on the website of the Australian Ministry of Defense yesterday confirmed the appointment of Stephen Chappell as the head of the Air Force.

The notification said, 'Air Vice Marshal Stephen Chappell DSC, CSC, OAM will be promoted and appointed as the Chief of the Air Force. Air Vice Marshal Chappell currently serves as Chief of the Military Strategic Division. He is the right person to lead the Air Force at this critical timethe

Before Stephen joined the Australian Defense Force, Greg bought him a variety of aviation equipment. After joining the defense forces, he was quickly promoted. Prior to his promotion, he was posted overseas by the Australian government.

Greg Chappell is naturally proud of his son's achievement. The former captain of Australia said about Stephen, 'He has become the chief (of the Air Force), we were very surprised to hear the news at first. Of course he was on his way to becoming chief. But we did not expect that it would happen in such a short time. His achievement is bigger than anything I have achieved in my entire career.
