[edit] Requested move

U.S. Pacific Air Forces → Pacific Air Forces – Proper name[1] of the USAF Major Command. --Pmsyyz 01:38, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

OPPOSE should call it USAF Pacific Air Forces 132.205.3.20 18:33, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
Support, assuming no other countries have "Pacific Air Forces", which seems likely given that no other country has the sort of extensive global military presence that would lead to needing to use regional names. FWIW "USAF Pacific Air Forces" gets even fewer hits than "U.S. Pacific Air Forces". Niteowlneils 00:37, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
Oppose. Gene Nygaard 09:34, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
Support, Should be called by name not by some erroneous name --EagleWSO 13:51, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
Support, Agree with EagleWSO. The actual name is Pacific Air Forces, and wouldn't be confused with any other "Pacific air forces."--61.34.55.133 00:59, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

It was requested that this article be renamed but there was no consensus for it be moved. violet/riga (t) 14:01, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Discussion

Do any other countries have Pacific Air Forces? Philip Baird Shearer 17:19, 16 July 2005 (UTC)
- Not that I'm aware of. --Pmsyyz 19:55, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] "Responsibility"

Deleted the line: "( in United States' government terms - the countries in this area would mostly dispute any USA 'responsibility' in respect of their particular areas)". As far as the national interests and international commitments of the United States go in this region of the world, the Pacific and Indian Oceans are, indisputably within PACAF's "area of responsibility," and I'm not sure which "countries in this area" dispute that. 61.34.55.133 00:57, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
