When did the Safari to Suez tradition start? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/when-did-the-safari-to-suez-tradition-start <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>This is when a Navy ship transits the Suez Canal. I was with the Marines and the USS LaMoure County transited the canal in 1980 along with other ships in the Amphibious Ready Group. We were the first US Navy ships to do so since the 1967 wars.
