Glad I don't have window-cleaning duty.
John S's first link has some interesting info about all the glass and
how it was made ocean-worthy.

I had the exact same thought when she came through. And having seen
the USN YPs last June, the lack of weapons didn't seem to matter.

Can't remember seeing one but I know from Marine Traffic that foreign
naval vessels sometimes pass through the canal when visiting the US.
