Just been notified of this by Queensland Museum shop:
On the 20th of July a brand new comprehensive Mephisto book will be released. It’s about 320 pages of information and an A4 size. It will sell for about $50 Australian. This is being released to coincide with the 100 year anniversary of the tank's capture.

This is what the very nice lady at the shop sent me:
I can put your details into our computer system so we will email you once there are copies available if you like? Like a reminder from us. Let me know!

Aha. I, too, have received a notification. I observe in the blurb that "a small group of (i.e. 15) soldiers — Queenslanders and Tasmanians of the 26th Battalion — retrieved the tank from within sight of the German lines."
I wonder if any mention is made of the (26) men of the 1st Gun Carrier Company and, indeed, their Gun Carriers, who took part in the operation?
