I had a very close friend who's father was a gunner on a Navy Patrol Blimp during WWII.

He said that he always had the feeling that the Navy didn't like him, and stuck him on it knowing that they wouldn't have to pay him for very long. He also said that the only reason they put machine guns on it was so that you could try to get even on the way down.
