This twisted mass of wreckage is all that remained of the Shenandoah, pride of the U.S. navy's lighter-than-air forces. Among the huge girders which the storm snapped as if they wore thin sticks of wood can be seen the tanks of holium, the valuable non-inflammable gas used. Had hydrogen been in these tanks, an explosion and fire would have been almost certain, possibly causing a much greater loss of life.

Members of the Amorican Legion paid full military

honours to the 14 members of the Shenandoah kiled in the

wreck of the dirigible near Ave, Ohio. Hore is a legionaira
