Answer 2

If your talking about the Panama Canal Zone it's in Central America and any American born there of military parents are automatically American citizens just as if they were born in mainland US.

The Air Force should be able to get you a copy of your birth certificate.

Answer 3

Actually it's central America, not south. But anyway, you should probably post this on the genealogy site. I don't know where they sent the records when they closed down the bases in Panama.

I would imagine you could check with the Air Force to see where the records were sent.
