A West Texas native is serving his country and helping to bring in the next president, Donald Trump.
U.S. Air Force Colonel Jon Julian, a Floydada native, has joined the Joint Task Force - National Capital Region and is helping to coordinate all military ceremonial support for the inauguration of America's 45th president Friday, January 20th.
"I'm honored to represent the Air Force on a historic day. I want our new President to be proud of our Armed Forces and our precision," said Col. Julian.
