Arrangement
There are several overlaps and gaps within the papers relating to the military career of James Johnston. There were occasions where he changed appointment part way through a year or still maintained some contact with a previous position in the handover stage, so the dates on certain sub-series reflect this. There are some gaps because Johnston did not retain papers for shorter appointments, especially at the beginning of his staff career.
