(Try looking at a SAC base or weapons depot ) Large portions of Ram stein AFB in Germany are whited out as is part of Landstuhl. My son just returned from Adana, Turkey and I was surprised at first to see how close I could zoom in. Why??? No weaponry is allowed to be stored, staged, or transported through the Depot there. The CIA, NSA, etc... satellite imagery is not available through google earth... Those images are scary up close and personal
