Relative of Local Family Survives Transport Oras
Shirley Sweeney, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Preston Sweeney of 1739 Poly Drive, is among the survivors of a transport air war incident. Her husband, Sergeant Johnson, was aboard the craft that was later reported as rescued far south west of Tonohalu, Max. Mrs. Sweeney learned of the rescue by telephone from Fort George Wright in Spokane, Washington, but she did not know if Johnson had been injured. This marked the second escape in three months for Sergeant Johnson, who departed from Hickam Field, Honolulu, last September.
