The resolution, introduced on February 17, 2025, requests the Division of Highways to name bridge number 50-064/00-001.75, which carries Interstate 64 over Broad Hollow Road in Wayne County, as the "CPT Ray Leslie Memorial Bridge." This request honors CPT Ray Leslie, a distinguished U.S. Army veteran who served during World War II. Born on December 7, 1922, in Boyd County, Kentucky, Leslie was drafted into the Army in 1943 and participated in significant battles, including the Normandy invasion and the liberation of France. He received numerous accolades for his bravery, including the Combat Infantryman's Badge and the French Légion d'honneur.

The resolution emphasizes the importance of establishing a lasting memorial to commemorate CPT Leslie's contributions to both the state of West Virginia and the nation. It calls for the installation of signs at both ends of the bridge to identify it as the "CPT Ray Leslie Memorial Bridge" and directs the Clerk of the House of Delegates to forward a copy of the resolution to the Commissioner of the Division of Highways. This initiative reflects a commitment to honoring the legacy of veterans and recognizing their sacrifices.
