'''Bridge Four''' is the name of a [[bridge crew]] belonging to [[Highprince]] [[Torol Sadeas|Sadeas]]'s army, which is used to transport bridges so that soldiers could cross the chasms of the [[Shattered Plains]].{{book ref|twok|6}} Infamous for being the worst crew, it does not have a stable leader until [[Kaladin Stormblessed]] is transferred into the unit.
 
Under Kaladin's leadership, Bridge Four transfers to the control of [[Highprince]] [[Dalinar Kholin]], where it becomes a military unit, but chooses to retain the name of Bridge Four as an homage to its past.{{book ref|sa2|2}} In this capacity, Bridge Four acts as the personal guard of Highprince Kholin, royal guard to King [[Elhokar Kholin]], premier spearman platoon of the [[bridge crew]]s, and headquarters platoon for the bridge crew battalion.{{book ref|sa1|73}}
== History ==
 
Notorious for its bad luck, Bridge Four seldom kept a bridgeleader for more than a few days{{book ref|twoksa1|6}} and almost always took the highest casualties on bridge runs.{{book ref|twoksa1|9}}
 
A transfer to Bridge Four was often used as a punishment for [[bridgemen]],{{book ref|twoksa1|11}} and the existence of a group worse off than themselves was a mental control used by Sadeas' men on the rest of the bridge crews. As a result of this, the bridgemen in bridge four knew that nothing worse could be done to them, and put no effort into anything. They didn't tell each other their names or anything else about themselves.
 
Upon arrival at the bridge yard in Sadeas' war camp [[Kaladin]] managed to earn the immediate enmity of [[Gaz]], the bridge sergeant in charge of the bridge crews, who then placed him in Bridge Four. They will still face resistance to turn their luck, for example, Sadeas has ordered the wounded men of Bridge Four to not receive food or pay for the duration of time they can't run bridges.[4]
 
=== Changes under Kaladin == =
Kaladin spent several weeks in the bridge crew before deciding to give leading and protecting one more try.{{book ref|twoksa1|11}} Once the decision had been made he quickly turned Bridge Four around, and through his efforts it became the best of the bridge crews, taking the fewest casualties,{{book ref|twoksa1|30}} treating its wounded{{book ref|twoksa1|17}} and training for escape.{{book ref|twoksa1|27}}

== Bodyguards ==
As Highprince Dalinar's personal bodyguards, Bridge Four members guard both the Highprince and his family. They consider Dalinar as the priority, as Kaladin believes that the highprince is their only guarantee of freedom. Their policy is to have a team lead by a Bridge Four lieutenant, if not Kaladin himself, watching the highprince at all times, while others guarded his sons or carried out other responsibilities as officers of Kaladin's battalion.{{book ref|sa2|2}}
Bridge four, even as bodyguards, remain very proud of their bridge. Their tattoos that they get to cover up their slave brands say 'freedom bridge four', to show that they were freed by bridge four.
