Military Checkpoints: Google Earth file


UPDATED 25 March 2011
Click this link to the GE BBS and simply download; then open using Goofle Earth (formerly Keyhole).

Disregard any "instructions" below, and as Lou says, simply save file to your hard drive and then open it.

(1) Right click on link to SAVE to your own computer (as a TXT file).
(2) Rename the file from TXT to KML (sorry about the extra step; this is my work-around solution).
(3) Then, on your computer, open the KML file (double click OR open with Google Earth).

I clicked on the link shown on Tommy Afrika's pst and saved the KML on my computer. Then clicked and opened it in Google Earth - didn't have a problem.

Tommy Afrika has sone some other need stuff with Google earth and overlays of Baja places a few years ago.
