Is it possible to sail through the Panama Canal during the time they are neutral

I can't give you an answer about Panama, but during WWII the British armed forces were still a major presence in Egypt (despite its technical neutrality). They had a major base in Cairo and the UK actually controlled the Suez Canal per a treaty signed before the war. It remained in effect until the mid 1950s. I would expect Suez to be crawling with Tommies.
