330-PS-2934 (USN 443985):   Sub Rescues Disabled Airship.   A disabled airship nears the reach of Boca Chica Naval Air Station in two by an air-sea rescue boat which took over from USS Sea Poacher (SS 406).  The ZX-11 blimp while making a dummy attack of the submarine came in on a low attack and its propellers struck the surface of the ocean rendering it powerless.  The Sea Poacher attached a cable to the blimp’s mooring line and towed it to the beach.  At daybreak, sailors hauled the blimp ashore to a mooring mast.  Photograph released July 11, 1952.
