Google puts the SAS's secret base on Street View
Military chiefs and MPs blasted internet giant Google today after its Street View service included detailed pictures of the headquarters of the SAS. Internet users can peer around the entrance to Credenhill, Herefordshire, which has never before appeared on maps for security reasons. The base is even marked as 'British SAS' on the website and offers users a detailed 180 degree view of the perimeter boundary.
'We all know where the Palace of Westminister is, we all know where the SAS camp is, but the issue is if you're going into such detail in such a way that you can undermine the security of that building, that could be a problem.' An Army insider added: 'Military chiefs have had concerns with Google Street View for some time. 'It is highly irresponsible for military bases, especially special forces, to be pictured on the internet.'
