Major General Julian Robert Lindsey (16 March 1871 – 27 June 1948) was a United States Army cavalry officer in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He served in the China Relief Expedition, the Pancho Villa Expedition and commanded a regiment, and later a brigade, in World War I. Sergeant Alvin York, perhaps the most well known American soldier of World War I, also served in Lindsey's brigade.
