  Yes, this photo (others linked) posted by the Library of Congress is of hydrogen gas bottles at Roosevelt Field (formerly Hazelhurst Field, recently renamed in September 1918 for Quentin Roosevelt) for the re-gassing of the R-34. Here is archival film of the gas bottles and the re-gassing of the R-34 at Roosevelt Field after its transatlantic flight, posted at the U.S. National Archives.
