Keith Joyce....Fraud, Conspiracy Theorist and Very Vicious Old
Man
Keith Joyce spent
many years building a
false
impression of his Military
career
and Soldierly prowess,
particularly
in
Rockhampton
and
Central Queensland.
He is
a mad galah member who
played
a
big
part
in
trying to
destroy various
Veterans
who have
stood in the
way of
the
mad
galah
agenda.
His
viciousness
and
bitterness,
coupled
with his
mad,
conspiratorial mind are
legendary.
Joyce
is
a
pathetic
fraud who
has lied
about
his Military career.
The
truth
is
Keith Joyce was a
drunken bully boy
and
incompetent and very
junior NCO and temporary
WO2
who
made
a
habit
of
beating
up his
Soldiers.
He
created
an
aura
around
himself
which
painted
him as
a
long
serving
and
senior
Regular,
volunteer
professional
Soldier. Many
in
the
Rockhampton
local civil
community
and Veteran
community were
taken in by his
propaganda.
The
truth is
Keith Joyce
spent very little time
as a
professional
Regular Soldier,
spending most of
his
time in
the
then
CMF,
now
ARES
[
part
time
Soldiers
]
and
School
Cadets [
and Boy Scouts ]. He spent a
mere
3
and
a
bit
years as
a
Regular,
professional
volunteer Soldier, and was
very very
average.
At discharge
he was a very
junior
Temporary Warrant
Officer
Class Two,
and not
a
Class One
which he
lets
many
people think.
He
was
also a very junior
substantive [ permanent ]Sergeant
in the Infantry
Corps at
discharge,
and had a
poor
reputation in
Infantry
Battalions, so much so that
when
the
6
RAR
Warrant
Officers
and
Sergeants
were told
he may be posted
to the
Battalion as
a very
junior, trouble making
Sergeant
there was
uproar. Keith
Joyce never ever
served in
Regular Army
Units, and
has no
knowledge of
Regimental life
in the professional
Army. He
simply
doesn't understand
what being
a
professional
Soldier in
regular
units is like.
Joyce was rejected for
Service
in the
AATTV
[
Training
Team Vietnam
which
worked
with the
South
Vietnamese
Military ]
in 1967 as being
"unsuitable", and
was not
accepted
into AATTV until
the
Vietnam War was ending
in
the early
70's. His Military
record
is
anything but
exceptional,
exemplary
and heroic,
despite
his
convincing
many to believe
otherwise,
particularly the
central Queensland
Federal
Member
Kirsten Livermore
[ALP] and
the
former
Rockhampton
Mayor[ALP],
with whom he worked in
very closely.
Joyce has
made a
career of
trying to belittle,
defame
and
destroy
many
Veterans
personal and
Military
lives over
many years.
He has been at
the centre
of
Veteran
disunity
in
Rockhampton
for many years. Every
time
there is
trouble in
Rockhampton
you can
bet Joyce's name
is
there
somewhere.
He also has
built
a
false reputation
for
himself
as
the
best
Veterans
Advocate
in
the
Central
Queensland area,
something
many know
firsthand
to be
untrue.
For many
years now,
Veterans affairs
issues
in
Rockhampton were
neglected
because the
former RSL
President,
Keith Joyce,
and the
small number who supported
him,
captured the
agenda, convinced
many
gullible
community leaders and
others
that
they were the
only
authority in
Rockhampton on
Veteran
matters and
engaged in
a
vendetta and personal
campaign
against the RSL and
individual
Veterans. The
viciousness
of their attacks on
their
fellow
Veterans has been vile, and in some
cases has
led to some Veterans
contemplating
suicide.
Anybody
who
stood
up
to Keith
Joyce
was attacked
mercilessly.
This
meant
that,
while
disabled
Veterans
and ex Service
members
suffered in the area
because
of
Government neglect
of
their
compensation
entitlements,
health care and
superannuation entitlements,
the
former
RSL
sub branch in that
city
under
Keith Joyce failed miserably to
attend to these
matters, and
instead
concentrated on their
vicious and
spiteful
campaigns against the
RSL
and
individual Veterans.
There is plenty
wrong
with
the RSL. However Joyce
was not
interested in genuinely
fixing the RSL
system but in
payback
and a
takeover. He wanted to be
boss. He
had an
agenda. Joyce also saw the RSL as a money pot. Much money
simply disappeared under his watch and the RSL failed to
report his activities
to the Police.
The
arrangement
was
Joyce had
the
goods on the RSL, and
the RSL
had
the goods
on him, so
there was an
understanding to leave
some matters
alone.
Despite the
constant
highlighting of
the
real
issues
which
affect
Veterans by
others in
Rockhampton,
the band played on, and
the dupe
continued,
with the
former
Mayor and Kirsten
Livermore in
particular
pandering
to
the
nonsense and
misinformation which was
then
emanating from Anzac House.
Kirsten
Livermore has
received
literally
thousands of emails over
the last
8-9 years,
and has never
shown
any real
interest in the
Veterans
issues
which many
have
been raising around
the country
for
many years, yet she
has always had
time to
pander to
Keith
Joyce and by
extension support
his
ill conceived plan to disrupt
the
RSL core
business in
Central
Queensland, and indeed
in
Queensland.
The
glue
which binds Kirsten
Livermore
and Keith
Joyce
together
is their allegiance
to the loony
left of the ALP. It’s
well
known in
political circles
that
Livermore
sits on
the far left
of
the Labor Party, and
has
been a
destabilizing force in
the
Federal
Parliamentary Party.
Keith
Joyce,
through
his Labor contacts,
bully boy tactics,
misinformation and self
praise, was
able to
convince
many
in Rockhampton that he
somehow
was
the
sole
voice
for
Veterans
in
that
area,
that
he
alone
understood
the
issues
and
that he
alone had the
power and
intelligence
to
answer all
questions
regarding
Veterans
matters.
The
truth
of
course
has
always been that Keith
Joyce
and
his
few
supporters
have been a
destabilizing and
corrosive factor
in the
Veteran
community in
Rockhampton and
surrounds.
Mad
galah
Keith
Joyce is a blight
and
suppurating
boil on the
Australian
Veteran
community. He
is
a disgrace
to
all
decent
Veterans
and ex
Servicemembers.
