Amusing thing about the USS Shenandoah. Maiden Voyage on September 4th, 1923. Crashed September 3rd 1925.. Very short lived.

USS Shenandoah (ZR-1) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
USS Shenandoah was the first of four United States Navy rigid airships. It was constructed during 1922–23 at Lakehurst Naval Air Station, and first flew in September 1923. It developed the U.S. Navy's experience with rigid airships, and made the first crossing of North America by airship. On the 57th flight,[2] Shenandoah was torn apart in a squall line over Ohio in September of 1925.[3]
