H. M. JOHNSON AND FRANKLIN C. PASCHAL 



May 15, 1919. No. 6875, second lieutenant, pilot, twenty-nine, married, 

 merchant. 



Three hundred hours flying, 175 overseas, none over lines. One crash due to 

 forced landing. 



Physical condition good. Machine set for 28-minute run with 5-minute nor- 

 mal period. 



This was a slow, steady performance, showing a slight diminution of accuracy 

 in the 16th and 17th minutes and a pronounced retardation with still greater 

 inaccuracy in the last series. This was accompanied by a fall in the diastolic 

 blood pressure. At the end, he ceased working quite suddenly with but slight 

 preliminary deterioration of either the motor or attention processes. As the 

 subject apparently made little effort and at no time made a good performance, 

 the progress of deterioration is not clearly marked.
