The resolution requests the Division of Highways to name a planned bridge in Kanawha County, West Virginia, the "U.S. Army 2LT Darwin Keith 'Gus' Kyle Memorial Bridge." This honor is in recognition of 2LT Darwin Keith "Gus" Kyle's extraordinary military service, including his heroic actions during World War II and the Korean War, for which he was awarded multiple medals, including the Medal of Honor. The resolution highlights his bravery in saving fellow soldiers during the Hungnam Evacuation and his selfless charge against enemy positions, ultimately leading to his posthumous recognition.
Additionally, the resolution calls for the installation of signs to identify the bridge by its memorial name and directs the Clerk of the House to forward a copy of the resolution to the Commissioner of the Division of Highways. This initiative aims to create a lasting tribute to Gus Kyle's contributions to both the state of West Virginia and the United States, ensuring that his legacy is remembered by future generations.
