Sergeant Johnson and inflicting serious injuries to another soldier in the same vehicle.

Sergeant Lee Johnson

Lee Johnson was born on 7 June 1974 in Stockton-on-Tees and started his basic training on 30 July
1990. Upon completion of this he joined the 1st Battalion The Green Howards. He served in Canada,
Germany, Belize and the United Kingdom, and deployed to the following theatres: Northern Ireland 5
times, the former Yugoslavia once and twice to Afghanistan.

Sergeant Johnson joined B Company as a new recruit and served virtually his whole career in that
company. It was fitting that when recently promoted to the rank of sergeant and appointed Platoon
Sergeant, it was in B Company. An accomplished sportsman, he represented the Battalion at boxing
and the Army at Judo.

Sergeant Johnson was serving with 2nd Battalion The Yorkshire Regiment as a member of the
Operational Mentoring and Liaison Team, tasked with training the Afghan National Army, when he died.

Tribute For This Weekend
A Special Angel

There's a special angel in heaven
That is a part of me
It is not where I wanted him
But where God wanted him to be
He was here but just a moment
Like a night time shooting star
And though he is in heaven
He isn't very far
He touched the heart of many
Like only and angel can do
I would've held him more often
If the end I only knew
So I send this special message
To the heavens up above
Please take care of my angel
And send him all my love

♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥

How I Feel

I don't know how to feel
It's all locked up inside,
The emptiness is waking
The tears are running dry.
Your the one who held me
Gave comfort when things went wrong,
What do I do without you
I feel my faith is gone.
My heart just doesn’t realise
That you are really gone.
A loss that came so suddenly
But will last my whole life long.
Our time just meant so much too me
I know it always will
The memories locked inside of me
Forever to hold on too
You told me that we'd be,
Together forever more
Part of each others lives
But now the door is closed.
Never too be opened
Kept locked on both sides now
Although you may have gone away
Your spirit will forever stay
♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥

My Life Changed



My Life changed, the very moment I found out
That you had passed away.
I couldn't stop it;
There was nothing I could say.

You've touched my life so deeply
To a point you will never know,
I try to think about you
When I am feeling down and low.

Sometimes when my day gets hard
I will think about your beautiful smile
And if I listen hard enough
I will hear your voice after a while.

It's you who give me a reason
To go on with my day,
And now if I want to see you
I'll bow my head and pray.

I catch myself looking for you still,
In the halls and at your front door,
But when I call your name
There is no reply any more!

I never thought a day would come
Where we would be apart,
God has you in his keepings,
We have you in our hearts.

Life will go on, but never will be the same,
Your beautiful smile is gone, but it will always remain.
You're our angel from up above.
You'll always be missed, but most importantly... loved.

Just one more minute,
God, is all I ask- why can't you give her back;
It seems like such a simple task.
I guess people are right

When they say God only takes the best,
I know enough now that you're peacefully at rest.

There's no fairy godmother
To make my wish come true.
No genie in a bottle to bring me to you.
No prayer on a fallen star
No magic potion in a jar.
But I can dream and when I do.
I dream that I'm there with you
A little prayer a little tear
A silent wish that you were here
Tears in my eyes I can wipe away
But the ache in my heart will always stay

All My Love Forever

If luck was a raindrop

If hope is a minute
I'd send you an hour,

I'd give you a tree,
And if you need a friend
You will always have me.

This morning when I wakened
And saw the sun above,
I Softly said, “Good Morning Lord,
...Bless everyone I love!”
Right away I thought of you
And said a loving prayer
That He would bless you specially
And keep you free from care!
I thought of all the happiness
A day could hold in store;
I wished it all for you because
No one deserves it more!
I felt so warm and good inside
My heart was all aglow---
I know God heard my prayer for you
---He hears them all you know!

We had so little time to share,
Too soon, I had to leave.
I know how much you love me,
I know how much you grieve.

I know how sharp your pain is,
I feel the aching in your hearts.
My life so quickly ended
Before it barely had a start.

I remember how you held me,
And kissed my face and hands,
You cuddled me so gently;
But, God had other plans.

I was your perfect angel,
From God you knew I came,
Suddenly he called me home again,
And now God holds my hand.

I know you’ll always miss me,
I understand your pain is hard to bear.
Just remember that I’m in heaven
And we’ll see each other there.

So smile when you think of me
And wipe away all of your tears
I’m cuddled now in heaven
By our family members here.

I’m waiting here in heaven,
And on the day we meet again.
I’ll be the first to smile and greet you,
When God calls you home.
