He could have been. He was in the Navy, but all the info I have about him doesn't tell where he was. Many ships went to Australia enroute to the Pacific theater. I know my dad was sent to the Pacific in the army and his ship had a stop in Australia, so this is why I reason that the possibility exists that Johnson could have been there.
