Spotlights nav includes “Operation Epic Fury”
Alongside “Memorial Day” and “Freedom 250”, the war.gov homepage Spotlights nav surfaces “Operation Epic Fury” — the public codename for the Feb 28, 2026 strikes against the Iranian regime’s security apparatus.
Not hidden, not classified. Just a cinematically-named active military operation sitting in a CMS dropdown next to civic spotlights. Notable for the tonal contrast.
