Capt. Katiana Colón, (left) 837th Training Squadron, is pictured with her aunt, retired Col. Daisy Raldiris, at her commissioning ceremony, June 7, 2014. Colón was inspired to join the military as a child growing up in Puerto Rico after listening to her grandfather’s military experiences and seeing her aunt in uniform. Although she takes great joy from being a mother, Colón does not want to be viewed only as a mom. She offers advice to others in a similar situation: “Don’t let anyone else dictate what you should be doing; fight for what you believe in.” Colón stands to put on the rank of major in the near future.
