Operation Epic Fury

エピックフューリー作戦は2001年のアフガニスタン侵攻で最初の大規模な地上作戦だった。

Operation Epic Fury was the first major ground operation during the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan.

Etymology

This term combines the Japanese loanword エピック (epikku, from English "epic") and フューリー (fyūrī, from English "fury") plus the Japanese word 作戦 (sakusen, meaning "military operation"), referring to the specific U.S. and Afghan allied ground offensive in 2001.

Memory Aid

Break the word into parts: エピック = epic, フューリー = fury, 作戦 = operation, so directly maps to the named military mission Operation Epic Fury.
