Gary Gordon bridge

Officials are asking for suggestions for a name of the new bridge between Prospect and Verona. The name should be the Gary Gordon Memorial Bridge.

He was from Lincoln. He earned the Medal of Honor in Somalia. He died there while saving his comrades.

The movie “Black Hawk Down” was about his and others’ heroic actions there.
