I googled the name of my deceased brother-in-law and came across your “Lest We Forget” blog written on 5/28/04. You wrote about his helicopter accident that happened at sea on Feb. 1, 1980. Jim Hensley was only 27. He was survived by his young widow, who was his high school sweetheart, and their 2 year old daughter. His call name was Jim Bob Boy because he had a strong southern accent, being from North Carolina. He received a post-humus promotion to Captain. He loved to fly helicopters. He loved his wife and daughter. We all still miss him. (I lived at Kaneohe MCAS with my sister while Jim was deployed, then in Honolulu, then we returned to NC after the accident.) It was shocking to see your blog and read about Jim’s accident after all this time. It’s still so sad to think about, and it was such a tragic and freaky accident. My sister and her daughter are both doing fine — Jim would be so proud of them. So sorry to hear that one of the others from the accident has died. —— Semper Fi -——— Linda Morris
