Tom Arnold Dibblee was born in Karachi, India. He was educated at Haileybury. He had to leave when his father died. He was unable to get into the army, but managed to become an apprentice with the British Post Office. In the first World War, he wanted to join up, but his job was a reserved occupation, and he was forbidden to. So he resigned from the Post Office, emigrated to New Zealand, and joined as a private there. He saw service in France. When the war was over, he returned to England, and took up his old job in the Post Office again.
