I am an American who visited Cambodia in 2008, and went to the Holocaust museum and the Killing Fields, which has helped me understand to a much greater extent the horrors the Cambodian people have been through.
2nd, Is it the same bridge that I saw in 2008, or was there an older bridge there in the 70's?
3rd, Do any photographs exist of people being marched across that bridge during the Khmer Rouge Regime? I have not been able to find any on the internet... and I would certainly understand if they don't even exist.
Any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Sheryl
I currently am helping a Cambodian finish his story, primarily as the designer of the cover. He was marched out of Phnom Penh across the Highway 6A bridge along with his family.
I am wondering if you could help me with some information and maybe some photographs.
1st, Does that Bridge have a name?

I think you're referring to the Chroy Changvar bridge!
But Steve, wasn't Chroy Changvar bridge blown apart by KR before 1975 to pieces or was it still be usable then?
That is the only bridge crossing High Way 6 to Kompong Cham & Skun. Maybe he had crossed using the ferries.
