USS Macon (ZRS 5), a U.S. Navy Akron-class rigid airship, sank on Feb. 12, 1935 off the coast of California in what is now the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. USS Macon’s wreck site contains some of the oldest known aviation material submerged in saltwater. Archaeologists from Naval History and Heritage Command’s Underwater Archaeology Branch (UA) recovered some of the wreckage. Here, Tom Frezza talks with the UA about the wreckage and its origins.
