SB 836 designates Bridge Key 8430 on Pennsylvania Route 160 over the North Branch Little Conemaugh River in Wilmore, Cambria County, as the Potchak Brothers Memorial Bridge. The bill commemorates six brothers - Stephen, John, Michael, Frank, Charles, and Peter Potchak - who served in World War II with the U.S. Army and Navy.
