Don Johnson: Mechanic for the Mosquito

My father Don Johnston served overseas with 418 in WWII. Dad was an aero engine mechanic and told many stories of his time with the squadron. I have several pictures of him and his mates servicing the Mosquito as well as a squadron book produced shortly after the war and lovingly maintained by my father. As a young boy growing up in Manitoba his anecdotes likely had some effect on me choosing the military as a career - in the Navy! ha!
