  1. The day Johnston was commissioned, then-Lt. Cmdr. Ernest E. Evans made a speech to the crew, quoting a phrase attributed to John Paul Jones: "This is going to be a fighting ship. I intend to go in harm's way, and anyone who doesn't want to go along had better get off right now."
  2. This line is shared with expedition selection, resource collection, instant repair and development.
  3. While Johnston fired a barrage of shells that managed to force back Yahagi and her four destroyers from the Taffy 3 escort carriers, the captain of one of her guns shouted down to the handling room, "More shells! More shells!"
  4. According to survivors' accounts, a Japanese destroyer pulled up to the sinking Johnston to finish her off. The Japanese crew stood at attention and its captain saluted Johnston as she finally sank. Japanese accounts suggest this ship was the Yukikaze.

Trivia

  • She is named after Lieutenant John V. Johnston, a Civil War commander.
  • USS Johnston earned 6 battle stars and, for the Battle off Samar, a Presidential Unit Citation. Her character has two stars on her collar, one bronze and one silver - the silver one represents 5 battle stars.
  • The signal flags at the end of her hair ribbons correspond to her radio call sign, NIKZ.
  • The medal slung over her left arm is the Medal of Honor awarded posthumously to Evans. The full citation is as follows:
    • For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty as commanding officer of the U.S.S. Johnston in action against major units of the enemy Japanese fleet during the battle off Samar on 25 October 1944. The first to lay a smokescreen and to open fire as an enemy task force, vastly superior in number, firepower and armor, rapidly approached. Comdr. Evans gallantly diverted the powerful blasts of hostile guns from the lightly armed and armored carriers under his protection, launching the first torpedo attack when the Johnston came under straddling Japanese shellfire. Undaunted by damage sustained under the terrific volume of fire, he unhesitatingly joined others of his group to provide fire support during subsequent torpedo attacks against the Japanese and, outshooting and outmaneuvering the enemy as he consistently interposed his vessel between the hostile fleet units and our carriers despite the crippling loss of engine power and communications with steering aft, shifted command to the fantail, shouted steering orders through an open hatch to men turning the rudder by hand and battled furiously until the Johnston, burning and shuddering from a mortal blow, lay dead in the water after 3 hours of fierce combat. Seriously wounded early in the engagement, Comdr. Evans, by his indomitable courage and brilliant professional skill, aided materially in turning back the enemy during a critical phase of the action. His valiant fighting spirit throughout this historic battle will venture as an inspiration to all who served with him.
    • His gunnery officer Bob Hagen stated: "The skipper was a fighting man from the soles of his broad feet to the ends of his straight black hair. He was an Oklahoman and proud of the Indian blood he had in him. We called him-though not to his face-the Chief. The Johnston was a fighting ship, but he was the heart and soul of her.
