Where's MEGEN?

One of the many things I have neglected as a blogger these last two months was telling you about MEGEN, aka "Most Exalted Golden Laptop."

And being the creative types Team Navy showed themselves to be last fall, they came up with a smart and wacky idea to raise awareness of Valour-IT: MEGEN on tour. Most recently MEGEN has been visiting Naval Station Norfolk accompanied by Pinch, and he has some great documentation and commentary. Here's a taste:

The F-18 C Hornet. Megen is sitting on one of the starboard multiple-ejector-racks with mk-82 bombs loaded (inert, of course!). This is obviously an old aircraft. A more up-to-date aircraft display would have, in place of bombs, the air-to-air refueling package loaded up since that seems to be the primary mission these days [full-size pic]

Pinch takes MEGEN and the rest of us on a nice tour of Norfolk, full of plane and ship "pr0n," and a teasing "where is MEGEN?" pic. Check it out!

And the rest of you Navy types... when will be seeing MEGEN in your area?
