In [[2526]], Johnson took part in Operation: SILENT STORM, a counterattack against the [[Covenant]] aimed at buying humanity time to develop effective countermeasures against their seemingly unstoppable enemy.<ref>'''[[Halo: Silent Storm]]'''</ref> Johnson worked closely with the Spartans of [[Blue Team]] and acted as a sniper covering [[John-117]] during the destruction of the Covenant logistics fleet.<ref>'''[[Halo: Silent Storm]]''', ''chapter 20''</ref> When John received a promotion to [[Master Chief Petty Officer]] from [[Colonel]] [[Mammon Crowther]], Johnson was present and stated that he and Crowther had talked the promotion over and both had agreed that it was the best thing for the mission as the unheard of four-rank promotion solidified John's authority over the [[Black Daggers]]. Along with Crowther, Johnson cautioned John about "leading from the front" and what could happen if they lost John in combat. Before going their separate ways, John thanked Johnson for showing him how much John didn't learn during Spartan training on [[Reach]] and Johnson promised to help him again anytime.<ref>'''[[Halo: Silent Storm]]''', chapter 23''</ref>

Following the betrayal of [[Hector Nyeto]] Johnson was left floating in space, but was rescued alive. The last person rescued alive from liberation point three, Johnson had nearly frozen to death because his suit's heaters had failed and had run out of rebreather time resulting in a nearly fatal buildup of CO2 in his system. Wrapped in a space blanket and wearing an oxygen cannula, Johnson shared [[Sweet William cigars]] with John as they, along with the rest of Blue Team, watched the destruction wrought by the successful operation upon the Covenant world of [[Zhoist]]. Every time a [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon]] destroyed a target, Johnson cheered, particularly when eight ships of the [[Fleet of Inexorable Obedience]] were destroyed by the nuclear weapons carried by Black Daggers who had been taken prisoner upon those ships. Johnson began to reprimand [[Daisy-023]] for acting like succeeding in the operation meant they won the whole war, but stopped himself and left it John as her rightful commander and praised John's response.<ref>'''Halo: Silent Storm''', ''epilogue''</ref>
