Timeline

1921

Singer Gavin Friday lent Delaney the name and service details of his own grandfather, an actual veteran of 1921, to serve as the fictional O'Shaughnessy's commanding officer in the application.

Delaney cited sufficient plausible historic detail in the application which attracted the personal attention of Taoiseach Charles Haughey.

Haughey asked Secretary of Defense Michael J. Noonan to review the case, and three months later the government sent Delaney the appropriate service medals and approved the pension.

Delaney revealed the hoax before the pension was actually paid.

According to The Times of London, Delaney's Accidental Diplomat, "lifted the lid on the internal workings of the Department of Foreign Affairs."

The book was serialised in The Sunday Times which described Delaney as "spilling the diplomatic beans."

1995

His first novel, The Casting of Mr. O'Shaughnessy was published in 1995, and republished in 2002.

2001
