Inspired by this thread, what do you think the impending war on Iraq will be called? In U.S. military speak, that is, i.e. Operation <fill in the blank>.
1991: Desert shield, Desert Storm
2002: Enduring Freedom (I think)
2003: Operation __________________.
Winner gets nothing, 'cept maybe a visit from Homeland Security goons asking you how come you spilled the beans.
I thought it was Operation Noble Eagle?
Operation Ass Kicking
Operation Grudge Match.
Operation Lone Wolf
Operation Apocolypse Now
Operation F*** Saddam (or should that be “Saddam F***”)
Operation Oil Strike
Operation Boomstick
Operation Hail to the King

Operation Pengiun
Operation Shop Smart! Shop S-mart!

Apparently, the UK’s contribution to this … whatever you care to call it … is known as Operation Telic. “Telic” not being a word in most squaddies’ vocabulary, it’s rumoured that this is an acronym for Tell Everyone Leave Is Cancelled, or Tinpot Evangelist Leads Islamic Crusade.
