Garth Thompson Posted July 28, 2016 Share #1 Posted July 28, 2016 Recently acquired this 5" diameter embroidered on gray wool jacket patch for USN Airship Squadron ZP - 2 part of Fleet Airship Wing One with a few minor moth nips around the edge. This squadron was established in 1950 at Lakehurst as part Airship Wing One. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Hudson Posted July 28, 2016 Share #2 Posted July 28, 2016 I thought ZP-2 was at Naval Air Station Glynco in Georgia? Nice patch - my father spent 7 years in blimps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to what I read the squadron was initially formed in Lakehurst but operated out of Glynco until deactivated. I could be wrong and have been on several occasions.
