Henry life's work was devoted mostly to aeronautics. Soon after the war Henry went to work for CONVAIR in 1950. He worked on the assembly to build the wing section on the B36 strategic bomber. He continued his love for aeronautics when he went to work for Snow Aeronautics in Olney, Texas. He worked there for twelve years as a supervisor of the wing section for the Aero Commander crop duster. Henry Bramlet moved his family to Houston, Texas and started working for Grumman Aerospace.

Henry was known as a hard-working man and who lived a simple life. He worked to provide the best life for his wife and children. He definitely had a big heart for all his family who he cared for deeply. Henry loved to play games and sports with his grand children and great grand children. He loved to create and sing his own jingles, and occasionally he would yodel. He was a happy man, who dearly loved his family.
