[edit] Re: Merge suggestion

A problem could be the title since they are two separate entities. The RCAF station would be under the Zweibrücken Air Base umbrella, which is not historically accurate; RCAF Station Zweibrücken does not have anything to do with Zweibrücken Air Base other than they are the same location. A solution may be to retitle the article. Some possibilities are: "Zweibrucken Air Bases", "NATO at Zweibrücken", "RCAF Station Zweibrücken and Zweibrücken Air Base"...

All entites do not need to have all their historical names included in the title. It is sufficient if they redirect to the article. -- Petri Krohn 23:33, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

It looks better now, one article about the same base, just two different occupants over the years.

The section about RCAF Zweibrücken could be expanded more, but I don't have any information about it.

I've added a military infobox that reflects both names as well as the RCAF & USAF Bwmoll3 (talk) 19:19, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
