The Denton family did not originate the idea of naming the new bridge after my father, however, we would certainly be honored to see that happen and we believe it would be fitting, given his extraordinary service as a POW to his country which has been recognized by everyone from President Reagan to local Vietman POW hero, Jim Milligan. Dad did spend his most important years stationed here in Virginia Beach and a good deal of that fishing the Lynnhaven and the Bay. This is not to diminish at all the other names that have been proposed, some of whom are also certainly worthy. Jerry Denton III
