HE GAVE UP HIS LEAVE TO STAND BESIDE HIS MEN — AND NEVER CAME HOME A #GreenHoward from the age of 16, #Sergeant #LeeJohnson had spent most of his adult life as a soldier. By 2007, he was a Platoon Sergeant with #2YORKS, fighting alongside #British troops and mentoring #Afghan soldiers through #combat. At #Kajaki, he earned the respect of the #RoyalMarines he served beside. Then came a moment that showed exactly what kind of #soldier he was. During a close engagement, with enemy forces so near that normal artillery support could not be used and ammunition running dangerously low, Lee left cover and fired a 51mm mortar in the open as rounds struck around him, helping endangered troops break contact. For that action, he was later "Mentioned in Despatches" #MID. But another decision still lay ahead. Lee was due Rest and Recuperation leave. He had made it back from Kajaki. Instead, at Camp Shorabak, he cancelled his leave so he could deploy for the operation to retake #MusaQaleh, in #Helmand Province, #Afghanistan 🇦🇫 Not for recognition. Not for reward. But because his soldiers were going, and he went with them. On 8th December 2007, an #IED explosive device believed to be a mine detonated beneath or beside the vehicle in which Lee was travelling. He was #KilledInAction aged, just 33. The #Epitome of a young, brave #British soldier. The #battle continued around him. Journalist Stephen Grey later recalled Lee’s comrades remaining with his body on the hill for about 24 hours because no helicopter was available to take him out. Musa Qaleh was eventually retaken. Lee never came home to the future waiting for him — his fiancée Lisa, his son Ashley, his little daughter Lilly, the wedding they were planning, and the camping and fishing trips he had promised his children. His record would later state simply: “Killed-In-Action" whilst on active service.” Behind those words was a father, fiancé, brother and #PlatoonSergeant who chose to stay when he had the chance to leave. Sergeant Lee Johnson MiD deserves to be remembered not only for how he died, but for the choices he made when others were depending on him. Sleep Peacefully, Sergeant.

A #GreenHoward from the age of 16, #Sergeant #LeeJohnson had spent most of his adult life as a soldier.

By 2007, he was a Platoon Sergeant with #2YORKS, fighting alongside #British troops and mentoring #Afghan soldiers through #combat.

At #Kajaki, he earned the respect of the #RoyalMarines he served beside.

Then came a moment that showed exactly what kind of #soldier he was.

During a close engagement, with enemy forces so near that normal artillery support could not be used and ammunition running dangerously low, Lee left cover and fired a 51mm mortar in the open as rounds struck around him, helping endangered troops break contact.

For that action, he was later "Mentioned in Despatches" #MID.

But another decision still lay ahead.

Lee was due Rest and Recuperation leave. He had made it back from Kajaki.

Instead, at Camp Shorabak, he cancelled his leave so he could deploy for the operation to retake #MusaQaleh, in #Helmand Province, #Afghanistan 🇦🇫

Not for recognition.
Not for reward.
But because his soldiers were going, and he went with them.

21 years ago, Lee Johnson scored surely the longest range hat-trick of all time, including one from the halfway line #ytfc #yeoviltown #onthisday #goaloftheday #leejohnson #pafc https://t.co/DB04hROB5M
