Couldn't get the link to work, it kept re-directing to somewhere in Germany.

This is where a friend of mine was stationed:

How current are your guys images, my past two work places don't seem to exist on google maps yet.

I think they're probably from mid-late 2002. I still had the MPV parked in the driveway (with my neighbor's red hyundai on the other side since she was renting 1/2 of the driveway). Also if you look at ground zero, the large main ramp was still being built and most of the fountain was not rebuilt/restored yet. The new world trade center 7 isn't being built in the picture either.

What's the deal with New Orleans on Google Maps? Isn't there supposed to be a Katrina button so I can compare before and after shots?

Dugway Proving grounds in utah, lots of cool shit can be seen from the mountains around there with a good spotting scope/pair of binocs.

We used to go out there every once in a while when they were doing wargames to listen to all the explosions.

or, at least it looks like its heading that direction to me anyway.

It's an airplane flying out of Phoenix, I guess. It has dark wings... I thought it was a missile too... :(
