Scope and Contents
These papers relate to the period spent by Johnston as Colonel Commdandant of the Royal Electrical and Mechanical engineers. This has been placed within his military career despite most of the material dating beyond his active military service. This is due to it still being a military appointment albeit an honorary position and does not fit within his civilian career.
