\n One night in July 1942, Warrant Officer Johnson and Sergeant Agg and McGown were captain and air gunners respectively of an aircraft detailed to attack Saarbrucken. Before the target was reached, the aircraft was engaged by a Messerschmitt 110. Sergeant Agg and McGown met several attacks with resolute fire and succeeded in destroying the attacker. The skilful airmanship of Warrant Officer Johnson contributed materially to this success. On another occasion in August, 1942, this air crew were detailed to attack Nuremberg. On the outward flight, whilst still a considerable distance from the target, their aircraft was intercepted by an enemy fighter. Skilful manoeuvring by Warrant Officer Johnson enabled his gunners to deliver their fire from a favourable position and destroy the attacker. Despite damage sustained to his aircraft, Warrant Officer Johnson continued his mission, located his target and bombed it. These airmen have displayed praiseworthy determination to achieve their purpose<\/em><\/span>
