    He was transferred to the Royal Air Force in March 1918.
    The Royal Air Force came into existence on the 1st of April 1918 when the Royal Naval Air Service merged with the Royal Flying Corps. The personnel of both services then came under the control of the R.A.F. and Henry was one of these.
    This amalgamation continued until 1924 when the fleet air arm of the RAF was formed .
    It was not until 1939 that the Admiralty took back control of the fleet Air Arm.
    His records do not show when he was actually discharged from service however some notes found in a service book dated 1923 suggest that he was in the RAF until at least this date.
