        (define-key dired-mode-map "1"

            (interactive)
            (bookmark-jump "bookmark name")))

I watched that thread as well as looked at explicit `bookmark' threads
back to 2002.  A question that I formulated regarding the above binding

C-f is so reflexive, after a day in GNU Emacs, I do C-x C-f to get to
the shower.
