As luck would have it, the B-26 LBJ was on aborted before reaching the target
and being engaged by Zeros. So the citation for the SS is misleading. It's not
the only such citation that is not entirely accurate.

Thanks for confirming that. I remembered it as the case but didn't
have anything here to back it up.

And remember that Johnson got the Silver, not the Bronze.

all the best -- Dan Ford
