    Looking at 'Operation Irai Freedom' and so on I thought maybe we all deserve some light relief, so how about suggesting a list of the most euphamistic or just plain stupid names for military campaigns that you can think of? They don't have to be genuine but the operation does. Some examples:

    Operation Channel Cruise (Dunkirk and Dynamo)
    Operation Infinite Calvados (D-Day, gotta love Normandy)
    Operation Brass Monkeys (Soviey Winter Offensive)

    Ok, those are rubbish, how about coming up with some more guys....

    Tired of waiting for the invasion of Occupied Europe? Why not sign up for Operation Overbored?

    Definetly something more intimidating, like Operation F%&k S%*t Up, or Operation Pest Controll.
