Abstract

[This chapter is comprised of the detailed uncovering of the lived experience of soldier settlement at Goolhi in 1950 as Moment One. It outlines the particulars of the soldier settlement scheme and interweaves this with the lived experience of the soldier settlers as they took ownership of the land. The first-hand voice of the settlers is strong in this chapter, to capture an immediate sense of the past and the everyday way in which state action directed the conditions of possibility of their lifeworld. Their experience was often difficult but was understood as a significant opportunity and as such represents an account of the enaction not just of explicit state goals, but of a clearly-defined cultural identity.]
