PURGE is a Squid specific HTTP method for manually purging specific
cache contents. See the Squid FAQ.

"Pragma: no-cache" is on all types of reload actions, shift or no shift.
The difference between plain reload and Shift-Reload is that a plain
reload includes If-Modified-Since (if the object is cached in the
browser cache) while a Shift-Reload doesn't. What this translates to is
that Reload forces a realidation of the cached object, while
shift-reload forces a fresh download regardless if the object is
modified or not.
