I saw the Missouri go through the Panama Canal from our house when my father was stationed there in the early 1950's. Since we could see the ship, but not the canal itself, it was a strange site seeing the ship appearing to move through the junglelike landscape.
The Mighty Mo, once got a cursory tour of the ship conducted by the Chief of the Boat when the ship was visiting San Francisco. Very memorable..... still have the ship's coffee mug in my kitchen.
