 * "was made up by ten 40 mm (1.6 in) Bofors guns" - the 40mm Bofors article is is set index article now (I think there's actually a discussion about this on WT:MILHIST about that right now). Recommend linking directly to the exact gun article if the intended target can be determined

 * The SC air search radar seems to be only mentioned in the infobox?
 * I completely overlooked this; recapturing the old OpMajesTitan magic is hard. – ♠Vami _IV†♠  08:24, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
 * It's never directly stated in the article body that the ship was named after Lt. Johnston
 * This too. Added now. – ♠Vami _IV†♠  08:24, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
 * " escort transport ships to the Ellice Islands with Haraden, Long, and Stansbury." - indicate the type of the other three ships

 * "as all stowed 5 in munitions within the atoll" - I'm not quite able to entirely figure out what this means. I'm assuming that Admiral Joy wouldn't let Johnston collect munitions, but I'm getting stuck on the "5 in" part.  Is it the word "in", or is it suggesting 5 inch shells, in which case the convert template could be used to make it more obvious

 * "and was assigned to escort Manila Bay with Hoel" - indicate that Manila Bay was a carrier
 * "Evans moved his command unto the fantail" - I don't think unto is the word you want here
 * Changed to "to the fantail". – ♠Vami _IV†♠  08:24, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
 * "Johnston was sunk with 187 losses from her crew of 273" in the lead, but the body says "Of her complement of 327 men, 186 men and officers including Evans died" which seems to include Evans in the 186
 * Oops.
