JOHNSON v. THE STATE.

JORDAN, Justice.

Appellant was convicted of armed robbery, sentenced to twenty years, and appeals.

1. The charge, viewed in its entirety, sufficiently charged on the elements of the offense of armed robbery. A charge must be viewed in its entirety. Brown v. Matthews, 79 Ga. 1 ( 4 S.E. 13) (1887); Hilton v. State, 233 Ga. 11 ( 209 S.E.2d 606) (1974).

2. The trial court did not err in failing to specifically charge on eyewitness identification testimony in the absence of a request. Micheli v. State, 222 Ga. 361 ( 149 S.E.2d 803) (1966); White v. State, 231 Ga. 290 (3) ( 201 S.E.2d 436) (1973).

3. Appellant contends that certain precepts of law relative to his case were not charged, leaving the jury with insufficient guidance. This enumeration is without merit. Aldridge v. State, 236 Ga. 773 ( 225 S.E.2d 421) (1976).

Judgment affirmed. All the Justices concur.

JORDAN, Justice.

SUBMITTED JULY 12, 1976 — DECIDED SEPTEMBER 8, 1976.
