Er, Pacific Squadron was Royal Navy, too edit

It's the name of the fleet that was based at what is now CFB Esquimalt; I suppose Pacific Squadron (Royal Navy) would be the requisite title if needed; although I think I saw mention of the Pacific Squadron on a royal navy page so I'll see what they link it to there; might already exist; this page will need a dab line if it does, or once such an RN page exists.Skookum1 06:47, 18 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

OK, there's a British Pacific Fleet there; not sure what to do here; do I need to provide a cite for the British Pacific Fleet also being called the Pacific Squadron, or should I use "see [[British Pacific Fleet|Pacific Squadron (Royal Navy)]]"?Skookum1 06:49, 18 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
but now I'm confused; looks like British Pacific Fleet is a WWII term; I'm sure Pacific Squadron is the old usage for the Equimalt RN base's fleet.....I'll be back about this.....Skookum1 06:51, 18 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Second Opium War edit

The Pacific Squadron and the East India Squadron were two different commands so does the Second Opium War section (and the other East India squadron conflicts listed) really belong here?--$1LENCE D00600D (talk) 07:45, 13 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
