    TMC is a very good company and thanks for serving, my son is leaving for the Navy after graduation from high school in June ( not heading to great lakes till August 1 ) but i suggest you go to an accredited school that will use your GI bill to pay for it. this will leave you even more options. ICCC is a good school that can do this for you and TMC does hire from there but so do a lot of other companies that may have a better option for you after you are done. Good luck and again thanks

    How about driving a truck in the Army for 10 years and getting a check for the rest of your life and then go civilian.
