Indiana Jones and the Ring of Ra

Why this should be read:
It's 1939. Europe is on the brink of war. Indy's dad asks him to help out an old colleague. And the adventure begins...
Seriously, how awesome is this? I'm surprised there aren't more crossovers on this premise; the Stargate was in Egypt in the late '30s, right when the Nazis and Indiana Jones were chasing each other across Northern Africa and Europe; of course the most intrepid (and likely to stumble across supernatural/scifi artifacts) archaeologist of his day would have been involved! It's not a perfect story (the Langfords were Swedish, not German, for example), but it's a fun adventure no less plausible than any Indiana Jones movie (or Stargate episode, for that matter). Also, it has Catherine Langford being awesome, too.

Why this should be read:
Honestly, I wasn't sure if I should rec this fic, because the Stargate character who receives the greatest focus is Major Lorne, and it's after he leaves the SGC to become Sheppard's XO on Atlantis. However, I think there are enough SG-1 characters in large roles to qualify for this community.
Told from NCIS's POV, this fic provides an excellent and well-written look at the SGC from the outside. Gibbs and Co. have several dead scientists who may have been killed by Marines, and all their investigations lead to dead ends. Naturally, Gibbs is not one to bow out of a case just because some Air Force general hells him to; he's determined to solve the case and find out about whatever nefarious program they're so desperate to hide. As with all of Domenika's fic, the military details are perfect (or as perfect as possible given the source material).
