Image of the Week: USS Rancocas

LANDLOCKED AEGIS
The image above depicts an amusing oddity that I've driven by on numerous occasions. This is the US Navy's Combat Systems Engineering center for AEGIS research and development, operated with Lockheed Martin. USS Rancocas is obviously not the name of a real US Navy warship, but rather is the nickname given to the facility due to its location in New Jersey.

Just for the curious, the name Rancocas comes from the creek located 1.6 miles to the NE.
