The Algerian coup plan was code-named after de Gaulle’s resurrection remark.

Evidence

Meanwhile, plans were initiated for a physical, military intervention in France to force the hand of both the government and the slow-moving de Gaulle. Conceived by Massu, the operation originally bore the typically straightforward code-name of “Grenade” but under Delbecque’s influence it was changed to the more meaningful “Résurrection”, borrowed from de Gaulle’s allusion at his Press conference. — Horne, Alistair, A Savage War of Peace- Algeria 1954-1962, 895
