My sincere condolences to the family of "Jocko", and may all his flights in heaven be CAVU.

Maj. General Henebry was a paperboy for Helen Taylor at the Taylor Newsstand in Plainfield, IL, as a young boy.

One of a kind. He will be missed.

It has been a privilege and an honor to get to know Gen. Henebry through the 3rd Bomb Group reunions. He was an inspiration to all, and will be missed very much. My heartfelt sympathy to his family.

Patsy, Pat and the rest of Jock's family...Rarely whilst someone is young an older gentleman comes into his life and changes it forever. Such was the case with your father.

My heartfelt sympathy to all of Jock's famly. He was one of the finest men I ever knew. A true American hero and man I had the privilege of calling my friend.Sleep well Jock.
