Removing the edit that I did in WorldWar for Panama as complete speculation is unfounded if you base it on the terms of the Peace of Cairo. The Race agreed to withdraw from all US territory occupied by them since the invasion. The Panama Canal Zone was US territory in 1942 - thus if they agreed to withdraw from all US possessions and territories then that includes the Canal Zone. And considering the importance of it to the US and any attempt to rebuild I highly doubt the US would overlook it. Turtledove didnt put every detail into his books but its highly doubtful he would have had the US not want the Canal Zone back especially considering the damage to the US east west rail networks.
