Isla Tres Perros
Isla Tres Perros is a Panamanian island with an area of located near the channel of the Panama Canal in the southwest region of the Gatun Lake.〔Buckley, Kevin (1995). ''Panama''. Touchstone. ISBN 0671778765.〕〔DuTemple, Lesley A. "The Panama Canal"; 2002; pp 50–55; Lerner Publishing Group; ISBN 978-0822500797〕 The Island was created when the waters of the Chagres River were dammed by the Gatun Dam to create the Gatun lake. When the waters rose, they covered a significant part of the existing rainforest, and the hilltops became the islands that are now scattered throughout the lake.
==History==
Isla Tres Perros was known locally by other names prior to 1989; since it didn’t officially have a name, residents of other islands all referred to it differently. It wasn’t until 1989 that the island received its current name, which most locals know it by, Isla Tres Perros, Island of the Three Dogs. The island took on this name when three key military officers from the failed 1989 coup took refuge to avoid the military, CPT Jorge Bonilla Arboleda, CPT Juan Jose Arza Aguilera and CPT Jesús Balma.
The three military officers, all graduates of the Schools of the Americas, supported Major Giraldi’s coup attempt,〔Harding , Robert C. II (2001). ''Military Foundations of Panamanian Politics ''. Transaction Publishers. ISBN 0765800756.〕 to over throw Noriega, but when the coup fell apart and conspirators were rounded up and summarily executed, the three young officers went on the run and found themselves held out on Isla Tres Perros, when their boat ran out of gas. Due to the survival skills they had earned through Special Forces and Infantry training, they were able to survive on the small island for three weeks before the Panamanian military finally hunted them down and executed them for treason.
Once the story of the three “fugitive” military officers became public, people began to call it Isla Tres Perros, or Island of the Three Dogs. The story was spurred on by a pro Noriega reporter at La Prensa newspaper.
