  Lakehurst Naval Air Station was the home of "lighter than air" craft, such as the ZR-2 dirigible that met with tragedy. (see: worldhistoryproject.org/1921/8/23/zr-2-disaster) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lakehurst_Hangar_No._1

  ZR-2 never made it to Lakehurst. It broke apart and crashed while still in the UK.

  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Shenandoah_(ZR-1) "USS Shenandoah was the first of four United States Navy rigid airships. It was constructed during 1922–1923 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, Shenandoah was destroyed in a squall line over Ohio in September 1925."
