Tankers!
It's easy to see where the inspiration for the naming of this Mission came from if we take a quick look back in time. In the last hours of July 14, 1942 the Allied forces launched an offensive to take advantage of the fact that German forces had become tied down in the Tel el Eisa area, and would not be able to lend much support to the Italian Pavia and Brescia Divisions. This action involving British, New Zealand, and Indian troops was codenamed Operation Bacon.
