If I were planning a military mission for today, that’s what code-word I’d give it…just sayin’…
I would call it Operation Bohica
I vote for “Fall BOHICA”. I’ve experienced it for far too many years.
“Mincemeat” (The Man Who Never Was) pretty well took the prize.
In my working life, I didn’t “do” Operations, I did Projects, as in (I’m not kidding), “Project X” and “Project Y”. When it came to names, my management had about as much imagination as 200# of mulch. I always felt a little deprived (as we were doing some interesting stuff), I mean, even the generic as [dinkywongo] “Operation Jumbo” has more class than “Project X”.
Operation Rusty Cat .
Ron
“RabidHamster”
Anal Bumcover; Sean Connery commanding.
What,s wrong with “Sneaky Pete” or perhaps "Quagmire ?"Naw , not enough imagination! Oh , well I will go with operation “HUH?” tankerbuilder
Imagination wasn’t the key to naming operations back in the day… Random, unimportant words were the key… The operation name was supposed to be a word or combination of words that had the least chance of giving away the type of operation that was being planned…
Torch, Bolero, Overlord, Market-Garden, Husky, Hastings, etc… Ever since “Urgent Fury”, the DoD has been effin’ up the system, tryin’ to find names that’ll sound good in the press…
However, I’d go with “Plan 9 From Outer Space” for the next one…
Operation 229…
Operation HOnorable CCXXIX
Operation Fiddly Bit…
Operation CFS (That’s my code around work for daft employees. CFS stands for Can’t Fix Stupid!)
Well, besides BOHICA, there’s FUBAR. FIDO is good one, too.
Operation MOJO
LMAO…you also grew up during the era before movies used the Arabic numbering system…
Operation Dumbass, Red Foreman, Team Leader
At your service…glad someone got it.[;)]
LMAO!! My kids call me “Red”…`cause I call them dumbasses!
