Brigadier John Hemsley (born 1935) is a British writer and former Army officer and rally driver. Hemsley served as an officer in the Somerset Light Infantry and its successor regiments (the Somerset and Cornwall Light Infantry and The Light Infantry) from 1955. He spent a period on secondment to the King's African Rifles. Hemsley was mentioned in despatches for his service in Northern Ireland during The Troubles and went on to command a British Army of the Rhine brigade in West Germany. Originally a circuit racing driver in his spare time he switched to rallying in 1963 and went on to compete in more than 50 events, including as leader of the British Army rally team. In 1983 Hemsley and his wife completed an record non-stop endurance drive from Cape Town to London, setting a new record that still stands for the only true overland route the whole way with no sea crossings (excepting the English Channel).
