WASHINGTON, (IP) — The
Marine Corps yesterday conferred
the Medal of Honor upon a ser

nation’s top military honor in
Korea.
Gen. Clifton B. Cates, Corps
commandant, notified the ser
geant’s wife, Mrs. Mary Jeanne
Johnson of Salisbury, Md., and
Washington, of the award, Mon
day.
Gen. Cates said his office would
hold the medal for Sgt. Johnson
“with the hope that he would be
available for the award some
time in the near future.”
Sgt. Johnson was last seen
near Dam-Ni in North Korea last
Dec. 2. He was wounded but still
fighting desperately to provide
cover for a Marine platoon that
was fighting out of a commun

Americans have won 37 Medals

Record Tide Floods
Tacoma Waterfront
TACOMA, Wash., (A1) — Tac
oma’s miles of waterfront all but
took to the lifeboats this morning
as one of the highest tides in the
city’s history put a sheet of
water over much of the property
adjoining the bay and soamd.
Plants closed until the tide ran
out, beach residents moved their
belongings to the second floor,
and boats were dragged out for
navigation purposes.
The tide actually was scheduled
to come in to the tune of 12.6 j
feet, but the storm in the Strait
of Juan de Fuca pushed an esti
mated 2.7 more feet of water up
Puget Sound.
