Whilst occupied by the Luftwaffe the airfield was heavily bombed by the 12th USAAF operating out of North Africa, reducing the dirigible hangars to skeletons.
I always read that only the U.S. used blimps in WWII, What does the above mean?
I also found a WWII Italian designation as Airship Helmsman, and a Russian site with pictures of German Blimps in WWII.
I found this researching Elmas in Sardinia, where the U.S. took over the dirigible landing base and used it as thier own and while researching Lecce in sothern Italy ?
Anyone have more info?
