Footnote; in February 1956 Henderson was returning to his Headquarters in Nisab, accompanied by a Tribal guard and driver, when the car was ambushed by a group of tribesmen. The 3 men ran to cover in a ditch and returned fire. With a wounded foot and little ammunition, he charged alone up a hillside at a group of 10 tribesmen and disbursed them, saving his companions' lives as well as his own. For this feat, he was awarded the George Medal in May 1956. Then on 10 December 1963, Henderson, the British High Commissioner of Aden (Sir Kennedy Trevaskis), officials, Arab rulers, and politicians, arrived at RAF Khormaksar, Aden, to fly to London for talks. As passengers were boarding the aircraft, a hand grenade was thrown from a balcony by a member of the National Liberation Front. Henderson pushed Trevaskis out of the way, and threw himself in front of the grenade. 1 woman was killed and 41 others were injured. Henderson died of his wounds several days later, and was awarded a second George Medal, which is a bar to be attached to the first medal. He was informed of his award before his death. Provenance; directly from Henderson's family
