Military Ops: The Volokhs have a link to this page providing the operation names of U.S. actions (e.g., Restore Hope, Desert Sheild, Just Cause, to name three famous ones). Eugene himself likes Operation Nimrod Dancer, the first Panama op, which became Just Cause. My favorite is a 1987 Persian Gulf op called Operation Ernest Will. Yeah, Ernest will what? Can you call him Ernie? (Note: It does actually read Earnest Will when you click through to the detail page.)
