80-G-55205

80-G-55205: Refueling the K-84 after landing at Pici Field, Fortaleza, Brazil. She is the first U.S. blimp to operate on anti-submarine patrol from a South American base. The trip from Lakehurst, New Jersey, to Fortaleza was the longest ever made for a craft of this kind. The slack in the hose permits the blimp to swing with the wind. . Photographed by CPU 6, October 8-14, 1943. (4/28/2015).
