Johnson is planned for this Friday, the 15th. We talked about S1C Johnson <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=104354\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">back in August<\/a> when his remains were identified almost 79 years after his death.<\/p>\n<p>Johnson was aboard USS West Virginia (BB-48) on the morning of 7 December, 1941. The 18 year old sailor was one of 106 men (nearly 10% of the crew) that died in the Japanese surprise attack. For a glimpse of the hell that West Virginia and her crew went through that day, I discussed it in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=86868\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a past Valor Friday post<\/a> regarding the famous heroics of Doris Miller and the ship&#8217;s skipper Mervyn Bennion.<\/p>\n<p>Johnson will be reunited with his family (his parents and siblings have since also passed) when he&#8217;s laid to permanent rest next to them in Phoenix.
