About This Tool
For confidentiality reasons, the U.S. military began to use military operation codes as early as World War II. At that time, the staff of the U.S. military selected more than 1000 common nouns and adjectives to form a list of operation names. One of the most distinctive features is the naming of the Normandy landing Operation Overlord. In 1975, a computer system for automated management of military operations names was developed.
Are you interested in military operations? The random tool collected the 30 most awesomely American names for military operations, and you can see more pictures here, such as Operation Eagle Claw, Operation Urgent Fury, etc.
