I'll say "Defeat" Wouldn't you think we all would know this one! (especially us old timers)

Originally I thought it was "Dooms" but the more I thought about it I don't remember anyone actually saying what the D stands for.... I'm going to say nothing.

I agree with Matt. I thought doom at first also, but then I figured our military would not refer to a mission as being "doomed". Maybe it means when it is going to happen which is what it means when we use it today.
