In this ongoing blog series, the National Museum of the Royal Navy is following the route of the British Special Service Squadron during the centenary of its voyage. In this entry we discuss its travels down the West Coast of the United States of America where the battle cruisers and light cruiser squadron parted company then on taking different routes. San Francisco: 7 July "Until quite recently San Francisco was most definitely anti-British, a very large proportion of the population being German and Irish Americans. So much was this the case that a British flag could not be displayed in the city. Our arrival found the whole city lavishly decorated with flags, among which the union Jack and White Ensign largely predominated". (Vivian, J. 1926.)
