Commenced on 15.XV.1752 AN, Operation Put the Whiskey Down was announced to the press as a routine allied interoperability drill undertaken in the Trans-Euran Command area of operations. A terse information bulletin released by the Department of Defense stated that elements of the 1st Air Fleet (Alduria) and the Cyber Force's Directorate of Electronic Warfare had deployed to the Constancian port city of Kara for a period of thirty days.
A handful of aviation enthusiasts in the Imperial State would subsequently endure a miserable fortnight as guests of the State Protection Authority after incautiously sharing details of aircraft movements into Kara, which allowed a niche but global community of hobbyists to identify the deployment as belonging to the elements of the 12th Electronic Warfare Squadron and 302nd Special Operations Wing.
The choice of operational code name, although not publicised at the time, was highly peculiar, with many suspecting that the Secretary of Defense, Fred Strong, was personally responsible.
