Julian’s army career began in 1985 at Fort Carson, Colorado, after which he was stationed in Germany. He was a decorated soldier, and was honorably discharged in 1989. He then traveled back to New Mexico and Arizona to visit family and friends and ultimately settled back in Gallup. (Navajo Times, June 30, 2011)
