Oui!
From Le Wikipedia:
A sortie (from the French word meaning exit) is a deployment or dispatch of one military unit, be it an aircraft, ship, or troops, from a strongpoint. The sortie, whether by one or more aircraft or vessels, usually has a specific mission.
(A definite M-6 secret code a la "Waterloo".)

The "sortie" is French for EXIT. Je parle français en passant
