I'm CWO3 Richard F. Johnston, USMCR retired, currently living in
Kaneohe, Hawaii. If you are curious about this uniform, I'm wearing the Marine Corps Evening Dress uniform, not the traditional Marine Corps Dress Blues you are used to seeing. This is basically a Marine Corps tuxedo. This picture was taken several years ago. I'm a bit grayer (and heavier) now. The animation below shows Warrant Officer rank insignia for WO1 (Gold bar with two red squares) through CWO5 (Silver bar with thin horizontal red line.)

I had some "under way" pictures taken of MAJESTIC heading out of the Golden Gate shortly before I sold her...

This Web Site is always under construction, and will be
updated regularly. If you think of useful Marine Corps scoop to
be passed here, let me know. I was with "A" Btry 1st
LAAM Bn in Vietnam during 1968 and 1969. I'm working on Hawk
Missile System pictures that I took in Vietnam. They will appear
here some day... For now, check out Hawk Notes
to see some photos of the system. The Hawk Notes
page has some animated pictures on it, so it takes a while to
load. Please be patient, it performs pretty well, once it's
loaded.
I finished my Marine Corps career as the Maintenance Officer in 4th LAAD Battalion,
located in Pasadena, California. 4th LAAD (Low Altitude Air
Defense) Bn. is an Avenger
unit. Click the blue text to go to my Avenger
page. Prior to my transition to Avenger
, I was the Maintenance Officer in Marine Air Control Squadron
23, Theater Missile Defense Detachment, and worked with the Hawk
Missile System in Hayward, California.
My dogs, Peanut, Skippy, Chip and Truffle, who are Miniature
