Henley	DD-391 Gridley-class destroyer	CV-5 USS Yorktown	Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships - U.S. Naval Historical Center Online Library of Selected Images - U.S. Naval Historical Center NavSource: Photographic History of the U.S. Navy Wikipedia
Sunk by submarine torpedo off Finschafen, New Guinea, 3 October 1943. Note: In the movie "In Harm's Way" (1965, ), a junior officer, "Lt. McConnell" (portrayed by Tom Tryon), in the absence of all senior officers, gets his destroyer underway and takes it out of Pearl Harbor during the Japanese attack. This is likely based on an actual incident on Henley during the attack. In a fortunate accident of war, an inexperienced bugler had sounded "General Quarters" (battle stations) rather than "Call to Quarters" (morning muster) just before the attack. As a result, Henley's crew were at their posts and her engineering plant was fully functional. This allowed Henley both to get under way quickly and to shoot down at least one Japanese aircraft. As in the movie, Henley was conned by a junior officer, as both the Captain and the Executive Officer were ashore at the time of the attack.
