| Can we get a source on the name, please?

| :I agree. It would make much more sense if it were the UEG Commercial Fleet or the UN Commercial Fleet. As I recall - the reference doesn't have a page number - the fleet is simply called "the Commercial Fleet", not the "UNSC Commercial Fleet". Is a move in order? --[[User talk:Braidenvl|"Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have." -Thomas Jefferson]] 22:39, 18 April 2011 (EDT)

| ::After doing a bit of digging (glad I've made some notes on these) "UNSC commercial fleet" is found on page 96. "Commercial fleet" seems more like a description than an official title though, since it's written in all lowercase. As for the UNSC operating a merchant fleet, I've always seen the UNSC as more of an all-encompassing institution even though its primary purpose is military. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 02:19, 19 April 2011 (EDT)
