A Web site collects information on 1,200 sites that have been closed to the public by militaries and governments -- from Roswell to the Bushehr nuclear facility in Iran. But the highlight is a 3D model of the Guantanamo prison camp.
Christoph Wachter and Mathias Jud have been collecting data about the world's restricted military zones for more than five years now. The two Swiss citizens, who live in Berlin, have collected their findings on Zone Interdite, a Web site with more than 1,200 sites that are all linked to Google Maps and data they have collected about every site from Area 51 in Roswell, New Mexico, to the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.

Don't guess they need to GOOGLE "D-Day+America+kickingkrautass"
I would imagine some of this sites material would still be available if one searched thu some of the stored caches accessible... (I better stop there).
off topic but... GoogleEarth never ceases to amaze me... at my house you can see the two cars in the driveway, the picket fence and the kids' play area. ...just damn.
