Peter Warwick Gilmore was born on 31 January 1962 in Sydney, New South Wales, the youngest of three children to Ian George Charles Gilmore and Alison Shirley Gilmore ( Cayley).

He commanded the Special Air Service Regiment (2001–02), led the first contingent of the Australian Special Operations Task Group in Afghanistan (2001–02), was responsible for the Coalition Advisory Support Team in Iraq (2005–06), and commanded International Security Assistance Force Special Operations Forces (2009–10).

For over a decade he filled various appointments in the SASR, including as a troop commander, adjutant, operations research officer, and squadron commander, rising to the command of the regiment in 2001.

That year, he was selected as a recipient of the Centenary Medal in recognition of his "service to Australian society through the Australian Army".

Gilmore's period as commanding officer of the SASR coincided with Operation Slipper, Australia's initial commitment to the War in Afghanistan.

The Australian government decided to deploy a Special Operations Task Group, which was to include 1 Squadron SASR under Major Daniel McDaniel.

The contingent embarked in October, with Gilmore in command.

The Task Group deployed via Diego Garcia and Kuwait to Kandahar Province in southern Afghanistan.
