    Hey everyone, my name is Harry, I am from Bakersfield, CA. I am married, have 3 daughters, 3 grandsons and another one on the way. I am currently half way through school, I was a truck driver (88M) in the Army Reserves and deployed to Iraq 2 times as a truck driver. I take my behind the wheel test on Jan 19,2016, I feel pretty confident that I will pass. I have one job offer with Schneider, but have talked with some others.

    See you guys on the road!!!

    Most companies only give Military credit if i had only gotten out in less than 1w months, I have been out since 2006. I just started using my Post 9/11 GI Bill, I will be taking advantage of the apprenticeship program.
