BRACK: Bridge over I-16 to be named for fallen firefighter from Gwinnett

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher | Many of us do not recognize how many government services we have. For instance, when motorists are driving down Interstate 16 toward Savannah, south of Macon you see a sign for the town of Allentown. Motorists along about a 20-mile section of this interstate are under the protection of the Allentown Volunteer Fire Department. The department often makes emergency runs — about 16 percent of its calls — for accidents or auto fires on the Interstate.
