ZEPPELINS: HIGH ALTITUDE WARSHIPS. The Height Climbers ZEPPELINS: HIGH ALTITUDE WARSHIPS Back in the late 1950s, just out of high school, I got a job with a company that designed and built the breathing equipment for the U-2, the then super-secret high altitude spy plane. Because of the nature of the secrecy surrounding the plane, working there required me to obtain a confidential clearance. Because of that clearance I met a person called "Harry the Man," who, at that time was considered to be the top-rated high altitude breathing equipment specialist in the world. Top-ranked generals and pilots from all over the world would come by to pay him homage. Kelly Johnson of the Lockheed Skunk works was his friend as well as Howard Hughes. Harry had reached that high-exalted position in the late 50s, early 60s because of World War I Zeppelins.
