Robert Rader was an NCO in E Company, 506th Infantry Regiment (United States) during World War II; neither his rank (staff sergeant) or his highest award (bronze star) qualify him for notability under WP:SOLDIER. Post-war, he earned an education degree in Ohio and taught and coached at the high school level in Paso Robles, California; there is no significant coverage of his teaching career. After his death, an existing bridge in Paso Robles was renamed in his honor. A Company of Heroes: Personal Memories about the Real Band of Brothers and the Legacy They Left Us includes a section about him based on interviews with his family. He is generally not notable outside Paso Robles. Georgia Army Vet Contribs Talk 13:34, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Is the bridge notable? It would be appropriate to include info on him in an article on it. --Colapeninsula (talk) 15:43, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't think so. It took me a while to even find it. It's on 13th Street in Paso Robles; the dedication placque is in a small park at one end.--Georgia Army Vet Contribs Talk 21:30, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- From Google Street View, it's a pretty generic bridge.--Georgia Army Vet Contribs Talk 21:32, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete -- does not meet WP:SOLDIER and there's nothing else there. Coverage not sufficient to meet WP:GNG. K.e.coffman (talk) 20:33, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, not notable for stand alone article. The name can be re-direct to E Company, 506th Infantry Regiment article and mention there. Kierzek (talk) 17:33, 2 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
