It all started with an email telling me that this Veteran's son had a rare and unusual item from WWII that he was considering selling. Once I read the details, I decided I really needed to pursue this artifact. He told me that his dad, Ensign William Kaiser, was a United States blimp pilot during the war with Blimp Squadron 14, also known as ZP-14. His Dad's unit was part of a six-airship unit to make the first transatlantic crossing in 1944.

He recorded the details on the back of the section he cut off.     It's interesting that an internet search reveals that the airbase is still active and the blimp hangars are still there. I was able to purchase the tail section along with the original photo of his dad with other crew members standing next to the actual plane. Fortunately, the son lived within driving distance of us which facilitated the transaction. I sent my ferret, Gene Brunelle, to pick up the tail section and while discussing the exchange, Bruce, Mr. Kaiser's son, said he also had his Dad's leather jacket with squadron patch and his issue steel helmet. He wasn't sure I'd
