Comments Hey fellow Zonians! I lived in Cardenas Village from '76-'82. I went back in '92 and '93 and partied in Cardenas at the Civic Center. I miss that. My wife and I went to Panama last week. We had a blast! My sister's went too. My brother-in-law is Ken Roscoe (His dad was a tug boat captain). Looking for George, Darren and Brian Fox. Also, anyone have an e-mail for Patty Matthews Trimm? It took my dad 20 years, but he moved back and lives in Boquete. Looking forward to hearing from anyone. Bob

Comments I was stationed at Rodman Naval Station, attached to the Combat Craft Division (PBR's/PCF's) from '82-'86. It was the best duty station of my 22 year military career. I will always remember the friedly people and beautiful country with a tear in my eye. If anyone has any information on the where abouts of George Daniels please give me a holler. This is a wonderfull sight-keep up the great work! The Zone is gone-but not forgotten

Comments Nice to see the pictures and read the history, some of which I knew and some that I didn't. I hope to get back to Panama in the next year or two. I had hoped to go this summer but have to get my home together for (hopefully) a couple year stint in Spain.

Comments My 3-year-old son and I caught and released a butterfly today. I told him of the stories when I was young boy in living in Gatun, Margarita and Coco Solo (late 60 and 70s) that the sky would cloud over with hundreds of thousands of blue and black butterflies (moths). And every day I was always ready to try to catch the elusive large royal blues. For me, it was the time of magic and wonder every day. That early exposure to the communion of awesome nature with the close-knit friendships continues to influence me and my family today.

Hola~Everyone,
I was looking thru some photos from the mid 70's when I had lived on the Atlantic side and from the early 80's after moving to Balboa. What a great time to remember.....
and how much the Canal Zone meant to me.
Looking forward to the Reunion this Summer!
