Panama Canal Zone - work in
progress
The Key passed through the Panama Canal three
times during its lifespan. The first time was in February 1972 on its way
to Bremerton Washington, Puget Sound Naval Shipyard for its first overhaul and
conversion from Polaris to Poseidon missile systems. The second trip was
about 14 months later on its return trip from Bremerton to its eventual home
port of Charleston, SC. It first went to Portsmouth, NH shipyard for post
overhaul outfitting. The third trip through the Canal was in 1992 on her
way to Pearl Harbor and her decommissioning from active service. Below you
will see a collection of pictures from the various trips and links to stories or
events that took place at those times.
