Pacific Squadron

The Pacific Squadron, also known as the Pacific Station, was part of the United States Navy in the 1800s and early 1900s.

Established in 1821, this small force confined its activities initially to the waters off South America, then expanded its scope to include the Western Pacific in 1835, when the East India Squadron joined the force. The extent of its responsibility was further enlarged in the 1850's when California and Oregon were annexed.

In 1903, the squadron consisted of armoured cruiser New York, cruisers Boston and Marblehead, and the gunboat Ranger.

In early 1907, the Pacific Fleet was formed. The Asiatic Squadron became the First Squadron and the Pacific Squadron became the Second Squadron.
