My great-great uncle was the official photographer for the Roma. I have his Dance card from the Roma Dance that was held the night before. I would love to see the photograph you have as my great-great uncle (who died in the crash) is likely the person who took it !

WOW!!!!! I really appreciate this!!! My grandfather's brother was the "radiator" on-board the Roma. (radio operator) I have his uniform, and a trench coat with a pair of wings sewn on, his dog-tags, and INSIDE THE COAT POCKET were four tickets to the "Roma Dance" which was held the night before the crash. Since the Roma had a dark-room on-board, I also have a picture that was taken and developed aboard the craft.

The Roma went up in flames, killing most of the crew.
After this the Americans vowed to only use helium in their airships.

Very interesting film. Especially the contrast between the rigid R80 and the semi-rigid Roma. The first has a skeleton covered in fabric with gas bags inside, and the second keeps it's shape by gas pressure, but with a stiffening keel.
