OPERATION ROCKABYE BABY

Contributed by: The James Bond Movie Encyclopedia by Steven Jay Rubin

The code name for the plan by Auric Goldfinger (Gert Fröbe) to spray Delta-9 nerve gas into the atmosphere above the US Army installation at Fort Knox. Pussy Galore (Honor Blackman) will send five voluptuous female members of her Flying Circus to accomplish the mission in their Piper Cherokee monoplanes. Their flight moniker is Champagne Section.  Neither Pussy Galore nor her pilots have any idea that Delta-9 nerve gas is fatal and that Operation Rockabye Baby will put forty-one thousand troops to sleep permanently.

Fortunately, Pussy comes to her senses about Goldfinger’s real motives and switches the gas canisters at the last minute.
