Anybody got Google Earth ? A new feature uses aerial photos from WWII - must take a look.

WW II

Baldy,

I don't see a link when I bring up Googlearth. Perhaps I have an older version or I'm just not seeing it. Is the link in the "Layers" section?

Click to expand...
Go into the drop dowms...tools or views and click Historical Imagery. That brings up a slider top LH side, slide it to 1943 and cruise over europe looking for grey patches - lots of German cities. Also works in other areas - I found a view of the farm I lived on in 1963 in NZ!
