    I got mine that way in Ohio. I was a Ranger for 8 years but had gone too 88M school in Ft. Leonard Wood for my reserve unit when i ETS'd. All I had to have was 10,000 miles driving a military truck. And I did not have too take the driving test, only had to pass the written portions. Call or email your local CDL Examiners station when you can, they can give you the right info.

    In Indiana they will waive the "skills" test if you have had something like 2 years exp in the military, but you'll still have to take the written tests. It also requires some paperwork from Guard or Army.

    Obama passed something allowing inexperienced servicemen to go to CDL school while still active and to give tax credits to carriers hiring unemployed veterans.
    All that did was help CDL mills and starter companies exploit veterans. There are much better opportunities available to veterans than the trucking industry.
