    The VA considers your first year on the job training so I don't know if you can do it later or not.

    Schneider Bulk is the way to go with Schneider.
    Several companies participate in that program. I think Melton Truck Lines is one of them.

    I would look at veteran friendly company as they should understand the lingo and issues if any arise I would recommend using your GI Bill if you are not going to school right now chances are you probably wont become a traditional college student so take advantage of the benefits now and you won't loose any unused money, but remember there is a time limit to use it. Since you were a wrench I would look at getting ASE certs also

    I would recommend looking at the Reserves or NG once you get settled in to civilian life again more education benefits and a company that is military friendly will route you if otr to allow you to be home for drills

    Just my 2 cents
