Bill > HCR0005

This concurrent resolution urges the Indiana Department of Transportation to rename two bridges in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, in honor of two local men who died serving in the Vietnam War. Specifically, the eastbound bridge on U.S. Highway 50 over Tanners Creek is to be renamed the "Lary D. Fogle Memorial Bridge," and the westbound flyover bridge on U.S. Highway 50 is to be renamed the "Thomas G. Denning Memorial Bridge." Lary D. Fogle, an Army airborne paratrooper, was the first resident of Dearborn County to die in the Vietnam War, receiving the Bronze Star and Purple Heart, and his name is on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C. Thomas G. Denning, a Marine Corps Lance Corporal, also received two Purple Hearts for his bravery and was killed in action while leading an assault, with his name also honored on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. Both men, graduates of Lawrenceburg Consolidated High School's Class of 1965, are remembered for their courage, character, and sacrifice, which continue to inspire their community.
