Hello veryvermilion-ga, I believe you'll find all the information on US military operation names in Iraq in this page: Global Security.Org - US Military Operations http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/ops/swa-ops.htm To show some examples, I will list significant operations, mainly those during the 1991 Gulf war and the 2003 Iraq Invasion: Gulf War Era: Desert Shield From 02 Aug 1990 to 17 Jan 1991 Imminent Thunder From Nov 1990 to Nov 1990 Proven Force From 17 Jan 1991 to 28 Feb 1991 DESERT STORM From 17 Jan 1991 to 28 Feb 1991 Desert Sting From 29 Jan 1991 to 29 Jan 1991 DESERT SWORD / DESERT SABRE From 24 Feb 1991 to 28 Feb 1991 Positive Force From Summer 1991 To Summer 1991 Desert Calm From 01 Mar 1991 to 01 Jan 1992 Desert Farewell From 01 Jan 1992 to ?? 1992 2003 Iraq Invasion: IRAQI FREEDOM Major Combat Operations From 19 Mar 2003 to 01 May 2003 Occupation / Reconstruction From 01 May 2003 to Present Southern Focus From Jun 2002 to 19 Mar 2003 Desert Shift (in Saudi Arabia) From Nov 2000 to Dec 2003 As of this time, Iraqi Freedom is still ongoing in the Occupation/Reconstruction stage. For information on other operations, look at these pages: Global War on Terrorism / GWOT (Including Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan) http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/ops/terror-ops.htm Completed Post Cold War Operations http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/ops/recent-ops.htm Global Security Title Page of US Military Operations http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/ops/index.html Google Search Strategy: I used my previous knowledge of GlobalSecurity.Org and its list of military operations. I hope this has been a helpful answer. If you need something clarified, or have a problem with the answer, do please post a Request for Clarification before rating and I'll come back to you as soon as I can. Thank you. |

Remember "Operation Infinite Justice"? I think that was the initial name for the Iraq invasion, which had to be changed because Muslims found it offensive (only Allah, the Infinite, can administer Justice). Personally, I was offended by the operation itself, in which thousands of innocents were (and continue to be) killed. |
