You can scroll the maps, so if you know "how to get there" you could
scroll the map the same way. When you get to the general vicinity, go to
satellite view and start to zoom in until you recognize the features of
the item.
Last year I played with it and managed to locate what I think was
"Copters Corner" (club/restaurant as I recall) in Ft. Rucker... I did
find the enlisted family quarters we'd been assigned to back in 1966
(third grade for me). Could also find lots of helicopters on pads (Ft.
Rucker is army helicopter flight school)
