Listen "#68 Havoc-06 -Troy Knight"
Episode Synopsis
Troy Knight was member of the Royal Australian Airforce and was one of the first Airmen to pass 2nd Commando Regiment selection and to serve with what was at the time a new Special Forces unit, the elite 4 Squadron Combat ControllersTroy Knight’s mates know him as ‘Norm’ or ‘TK’. Born in 1977 to a single mother, Troy grew up as what he describes as a ‘typical Queensland boy’ enjoying surfing, playing rugby league and generally looking for mischief. It was Troy’s boundary pushing and risk taking that fuelled his thirst for adventure and made him walk into the Townsville Defence Force Recruiting office in 1999, just after the East Timor crisis had kicked off. Deflated at being told that Army Recruit training was bottlenecked for eight months, Troy was stopped by an Air Force Sergeant who asked if he knew about the RAAF Airfield Defence Guards. It was this sliding door moment, that would see Troy subsequently travel to Afghanistan, Iraq and beyond and become one of Australia’s first Combat Controllers in the Australian Special Forces.Book: Havoc-06Instagram: troy_knight06Facebook: Tee KayWebsite: troyknight.com.auBig Sky Instagram bigskypub Follow the podcast Onemomentpleasepodcast.com IG:@onemomentpleasepodcast FB: OneMomentPlease Donate: PayPal.Me/OneMomentPlease
