WO Robert David Johnston, Jr. of Atlanta, GA. He had grown up in Peach Tree, Georgia and graduated from Rhinehart College. He dropped out of Vanderbilt to enlist in the warrant officer pilot program.
By any chance to you have next of kin information or any biographical material on him? Of all the pilots in the unit, he was the one I felt closest to until he transferred over to D Troop 3/4 Cav.
