I wish I stumbled upon this entry earlier, while researching about the history of bridges. Surely this would have furthered my interests.<BR/><BR/>In any case, thank you for posting wonderful articles such as this.Jaymeehttp://heterotopic.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23700266.post-1147414162162825112006-05-12T14:09:00.000+08:002006-05-12T14:09:00.000+08:00thank you for the information, my information pert...thank you for the information, my information pertaining to the Candaba Suspension bridge is based on the marker set on one of the railings of the bridge as this was rehabilitated during after the war.

As a boy of 13, I attended the dedication of the Candaba Suspension Bridge in 1953; in fact, my mother cut the ribbon that opened the bridge. I would like to know if the pre-war bridge was also a suspension bridge, and would be grateful for any information on this subject.<BR/><BR/>Lonn Taylor<BR/>Fort Davis, Texas<BR/>taylorw@overland.netLonn Taylornoreply@blogger.com
