Show ANTI-SUBMARINE BLIMP IN ACTION " - J ! ' ' - ' . 1 ; '( WASHINGTOX, D. C. (Pixpage) Blimps of the U. S. Navy are playing an important part in the job of making waters adjacent to the U. S. unhealthy for Axis submarines. Above you see one of those blimps in action off the Atlantic coast. The crew of the blimp sighted an oil slick on the water, an indication that a disabled dis-abled U-boat might be present. Top left, the first depth charge dropped by the blimp lets go. The blimp speeds on and circles back dropping another charge (top right). Below the airship is shown circling the area. The oil slick may be plainly traced on the water below the blimp. |
