USS Shenandoah (ZR-1)


     Shenandoah, the first rigid airship built in the U.S., represented the Navy's inaugural effort with large, rigid-type airships.  Essentially a copy of a WWI Zeppelin, Shenandoah represented a stepping stone to more modern ships.  Please join us for a tour through her history:
