Col. George Juskalian, who passed away on July 4, at age 96, joined the United States Army in 1939, and served in World War II.  He would continue to serve for three decades, as a battalion commander in combat in Korea (1952-53) and a military advisor to the Vietnam Army under combat conditions (1963-64). Other key assignments included service in General Eisenhower's secretariat in the Pentagon (1945-48) and advisor to the Imperial Iranian Army in Tehran (1957-58). He retired with the rank of colonel in 1967.

According to CBO, any costs related to new post office designations, which include the cost of changing the name on the building, signs, and maps, are not significant.
