Last Known Activity:
This Sailor has an (IMO) In Memory Of Headstone in Saint Joseph's Cemetery, Gardiner, Maine.
During the early morning hours of New Year's Day 1968, an RA-3B Skywarrior (BuNo 144847) of VAP-61 was hit by ground fire while conducting a night reconnaissance mission over North Vietnam. The pilot turned his damaged aircraft seaward and made it out to about 30 miles offshore before the aircraft crashed. Despite extensive searches, the three crewmen - LCDR James R. Dennison, pilot; LTJG Terrence H. Hanley, navigator; and PH1 Henry H. Herrin - were not found. Contrary to some reports, this aircraft was part of the VAP-61 detachment aboard the aircraft carrier USS ORISKANY (CVA-34) and the mission was launched from that carrier
