AI Summary

This resolution requests the West Virginia Division of Highways to rename a specific bridge in Wetzel County as the "U.S. Army Private Terry F. Tustin Memorial Bridge" in honor of a local veteran. The resolution provides background on Terry F. Tustin, who was born in Hundred, West Virginia, and was one of eleven children, with seven sons serving in the military. Private Tustin enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1965, served in Vietnam from 1965 to 1967, and earned multiple military decorations including the National Defense Service Medal and Vietnam Service Medal. After his military service, he worked as a boilermaker, was a long-time member of the American Legion, and had a family that included four daughters, nine grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren. The specific bridge to be renamed is located on US 250 over Church Fork Creek, identified by bridge number 2-250/12-000.02, and the resolution not only requests the naming but also directs the Division of Highways to create and install identifying signs for the memorial bridge, with the House Clerk tasked with forwarding a copy of the resolution to the highway commissioner.
