Best Military Operation Name

This is kinda hard because there have been so many memorable operation names. But if I had to vote for the best I think Israel took the cake with:

"Operation Wrath of God" in which the Mossad was sent out to liquify all persons taking part in the assasination / assualt on thier olympic team.

Come on military buffs - whats your favorite operations name?

Operation Zorro II - Mexico 1995 - Joint DEA Operation

Operation Blast Furnace - Bolivia 1986 - US Special Operations

Whiskey Rebellion - US 1794

Operation Pocket Money - Vietnam 1972

Operation Red Hat - Johnston Atoll


Some I'd like to see:

Operation Grab @ss

Operation Milk Man

Operation Goat F%#k

Operation Jack Black

Operation You're a Towel

Operation burnt bones

This bring to mind the worst name ever...

Operation attack from the west at 1500 hrs sharp.

Here is the Motherload of US Operation Names

I Like Operation Ghost Dancer myself.



BTW, what about the crazy Disney names given to Presidents by the Secret Service? Just curious...

Nice link Zed thanks. I have not heard of the Disney name for President thing before.

How about " Operation: lets enjoy ouselves after the kids are in bed"?

I liked Overlord. But now that I know it, I think Wrath of God is good.

Sure.
As for the Disney thing, I couldn't find it...
I did find this List of Code Names which I thought was pretty cool.

I liked the daft sounding:

"Operation Sealion"

It was the planned German operation to invade good old England in WW2.

No wonder it failed with a stupid name like that

Sealion Info

"Operation Overlord"

Inavasion of Normandy, France. June 6, 1944.

How about one I just made up:

operation Iraq Attack!

Operation Ramshackling Infinite Storm of Iron Bomb Death

Operation Reign of terror.

Operation rolling thunderous lightning cascade nuclear hell with the burning and the death and the screaming upon thy ass.

OPERATION LICORNE !

And what about "OPERATION FLOUD AND TEMPEST OF THE DESERT"...

I am missing the operation conducted in Venezuela, I think 2-3 years before. They tried to bring down the president(though no military action, it was CIA covert style-yooo ) and it would have worked out nearly. The whole thing just went public with undeniable proof because just at that time some scandinavian tv team was doing a documentary about the president because of his very very modern style of leadership and strong line against the USA.
I laughed my ass off, that was one of the most worst CIA operations I ever heared of. Even if only 10% is true those guys are dumb as a donkey. Really priceless

The best argument against Rightist is to give them power. Bush is the proof, no ?

Rightists are those that reject the left path.

Being right doesn't mean you are moral or pure.

Being leftist doesn't mean that you care about anyone else but yourself.

The great crime is in not seeing fault in yourself.
