Stargate Corps (SGC)

Discovered in 1928 in a dig site in the Egyptian city of Giza the Stargate was misidentified as a weapon and was slated to be moved in secrete aboard the merchant navy vessel Achilles; during a stopover at the English port of Southampton a diplomatic incident meant that the existence of the Stargate was revealed to the British government. By the time that the incident was resolved war had broken out and the water's around England had become too dangerous for the Stargate to be moved and was to be moved to the Northwood facility in Eastbury, Hertfordshire. The first people to study the device devolved a theory that suggested the Stargate wasn't a weapon but a mean of transportation. A research team lead by Professor Langford and Doctor Ernest Littlefield was brought from the United States to continue research. A chance discovery by a Royal Marine Commando team raided a German convoy in late 1939 that was heading out of Egypt; the convoy was hit after intelligence was discovered that the German's were moving a new powerful weapon. No one could know that it held the key to operating the Stargate, in fact it would take another 3 months before the two devices were reunited. Northwood facility
