November 22nd, 2019 : Zeppelin, no Led
In war the best weapon is information about your foe. During the US Civil War they would send someone up in a balloon
basket with binoculars to spy on enemy troop strength and position. He’d draw pictures and write notes to drop to the brass in charge. He also hopes there weren’t any sharpshooters close enough to hit that fragile wicker basket. Then comes The War to End All Wars, WWI, and the Germans had Zeppelins to spy from and drop bombs too. But Zeppelins are not very fast and a big target for Snoopy in his Sopwith Camel and others in the Type 22s. Even the Handley Page bombers could catch them. Herr General we could use the help of the Zeppelins for spying and bombing. Dummkopf, they would get shot down by artillery or enemy planes if they were low enough to see the targets to bomb. But Herr General, I have a plan. Quote:

From the thread title, I thought this was gonna be about JFK's assassination.
Couldn't see the Zeppelin part...or didn't, one or the other.
