-The '''Three Johnsons Glitch''' is a simple [[glitch]] that can be performed on the [[Halo 3|''Halo 3'']] [[Campaign]] levels, [[Sierra 117]] and [[Crow's Nest]], although slightly difficult on Sierra 117.
+The '''Three Johnsons Glitch''' is a simple [[glitch]] that can be performed on the [[Halo 3|''Halo 3'']] [[Campaign]] levels [[Sierra 117]] and [[Crow's Nest (Level)|Crow's Nest]]. The glitch causes multiple instances of [[Sergeant]] [[Avery Junior Johnson|Johnson]] to spawn on the level.
-== Walkthrough==
+== Instructions ==
+=== Sierra 117 ===
+Start from the beginning of the level. Go to the waterfall and wait for Johnson. When he stops and looks at you, shoot him in the head. Quickly proceed to kill the enemies that deploy from the first [[Phantom]], and get a loading point and/or checkpoint. Then, return to the first Johnson.
+[[Melee]] and headshot him whenever necessary, until you raech the area where the second Johnson is captured. When you see the second Johnson fleeing from [[Covenant]] forces, headshot him with a [[Battle Rifle]] and use a [[Brute Shot]] and [[grenades]] to knock him off the bridge. Finally, melee both Johnsons to where the third Johnson (held captive by [[Brutes]]) resides.
+=== Crow's Nest ===
+Start from the beginning to the level. Melee the first Johnson to the hangar; after you clear out the Covenant forces in the hangar, melee him back to the Ops Center, where you will find a second Johnson. Melee both Johnsons into the barracks -- the second, then the first.
-=== Sierra 117 ===
+When you reach the third Johnson (who should be about to board a [[Pelican]]), headshot him after all the nearby [[Marines]] have entered the Pelican. This will prevent Johnson, and also the [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter]], from being removed from the level.
-Start at Mission Start. Go to the waterfall and wait for Johnson. When he stops and looks at you, shoot him in the head. Then go kill the enemies that jump out of the first [[Phantom]] and get a loading point or checkpoint. Then head back to where the first Johnson. Melee and headshot him whenever necessary until you reach the area where the second Johnson is captured. When you see the second Johnson, headshot him with a [[Battle Rifle]] and use a [[Brute Shot]] and grenades to get him down. Finally, melee the two Johnsons to the area where the third Johnson is.
-=== Crow's Nest ===
+Now you have three Johnsons. However, the third Johnson and the Arbiter will vanish when you reach the room with the [[Plasma Cannon]]s, leaving you with two Johnsons to melee to the end of the level.
-Start at Mission Start. Melee the first Johnson to the hangar. After you have killed all the enemies, melee him back to the command center and melee the second Johnson into the barracks then the first Johnson. When you get to the area with the third Johnson, headshot the third Johnson after all the marines have entered the Pelican. This will prevent Johnson, and also the [[Arbiter]], from being removed from the level. Now you have three Johnsons. However, the third Johnson and the Arbiter will be removed from the level when you reach the room with the Plasma Cannons, so this will leave you with two Johnsons to melee to the end of the level.
-== Trivia ==
+== Explanation ==
+When proceeding through these levels normally, Sergeant Johnson is deleted from and re-added to the levels several times -- each time he and the player get separated, Johnson is removed from the level. Killing Johnson, however, prevents him from leaving the level. When the game re-adds him later, it does not check to see if the previous Johnson was successfully removed.
+This, then, is the exact same glitch as the [[Life After Death]] glitch ''and'' the [[Two Arbiters Glitch]] (when the latter glitch is performed on [[The Ark (Level)|The Ark]] or [[Halo (Halo 3 Level)|Halo]]).
+== Trivia ==
+*You can kill the Johnsons who spawn with a Battle Rifle anytime, turning them into an infinite supply of Battle Rifle ammo.
-*You can kill any of the Johnsons who respawn with a Battle Rifle anytime to get near infinite Battle Rifle ammo.
