You can create your own military Top maps that way.

In the options you can change the mapping system from Lat and Long to Universal Tranverse Mercator (UTM).

That way where ever you lay the pointer you will get a 12 digit grid coordinate.

The Topo overlay currently only works for the USA as the maps are derived from the US Geological Survey (USGS).

Then take a screen shot of Google Maps in with the Topo layer on. Save that and open it with Milsketch. Keeping GE open you can use that to reference proper grid coordinates if you use such in your campaign.
Where do you find the add-on?
