Right. You have two layers here
1. Names refering to "actual troop locations and movement" which might
go by randomly assigned words, e.g. Operation COBRA BLUE; and
2. Names referring to "what we're trying to accomplish by sending our
people waaaay over there", used by politicals and military, such as
Operation JUST CAUSE.
