Duntroon’s trigger for that Hoddle Street Shooting Spree

We detail the lead up to the Hoddle Street Shooting Spree of 9th August 1987 from Julian Knight’s targeted and relentless subjection to hate-filled criminal persecution (bastardisation) by senior cadets at the Australian Army Officer Royal Military College at Duntroon (Jan – Jun 1987). This sad and horrific tale of Hoddle Street […]

The Age initial journalist reporting of the Hoddle Street shootings

Aside from subsequent media scrutiny over the decades since the Hoddle Street Shootings, on the very next day, Monday 10th August 1987, Melbourne’s lead newspaper The Age reported the specific crime event as a news story on its front page. That news article represented objective factual journalism. The Unbiased Journalism

This is the official website of Australian Soldier Julian Knight.

Having duly served the Supreme Court of Victoria’s imposed sentence of 27 years for his immediately confessed mass crime, unelected politician Denis Napthine usurped the judiciary and illegally imposed indefinite detention. Instantly in 2014 Julian Knight became not a criminal, but a political prisoner of the Victorian Government No. 49821 held at Port Phillip Prison | formerly Army Corps of Staff Cadet No. 5266 at the Royal Military College Duntroon | formerly Australian Army Reserve Trooper No. 3204059.

*Soldier: We consider the title of Soldier to be a noble profession the moment a civilian signs up to serve Country, followed by training, experience and sacrifice in battle. So we duly grammatise it with a capital ‘S’. ADF personnel (whether a ‘Soldier’, ‘Sailor’, ‘Aircrew’, or any other ADF role, from Day 1 to serve their country (Australia) instantly becomes a special member of our vital Australian Defence Force.

From Day 1 sign-up, each Army recruit deserves this capital title ‘Soldier’ despite pre-trained, pre- experienced, pre-active service, pre-medal recipient, pre-veteran, pre-wounded, pre-KIA.

Such military ‘sign up’ is so much a distinct and a higher calling that most other professions / trades.

Let no person who has ever ‘signed up to serve their country‘ ever hold any doubt of their rare courage to serve. We Australians as CIVVY citizens hold a profound civilian duty to respect and be proud of what these relative few committed souls put their lives in harm’s way and continue to champion and protect our fortunate way of life in Australia. They proudly follow in the legacy of our forebears of similar ilk who hard-fought and sacrificed.

Sadly increasingly these are forgotten brave heroes. History repeats. Sadly, negative and dangerous mis-training of those so committed risks outcomes like Hoddle Street (1987) and Full Metal Bullet (1987). Both a bully bad year of Soldier negative recruitment training.
