Chrome adding no-cache header when href is clicked

I have an href in my page like:

<a href="/mysection"> My Section </a>

when I click it, Chrome makes the request with a the following header:

Cache-Control:no-cache

which makes the request by-pass all cache layers, so I get a 200 status code for resources that should be cached (so I should receive a 304)

I've tested the same app with firefox and it doesn't add the Cache-Control header, so I'm getting my 304 status codes as spected.

How can I make Chrome not to add no-cache header on href's clicks? is this the default behavior?

Chrome version: 27.0.1453.110

Firefox version: 24.0

OS: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

I had cache disabled from chrome config. No that I've enabled it, I'm getting "200 (from cache)" as expected
