Program helps Soldiers, veterans get commercial driver's license

More than 10,000 Soldiers and veterans have been issued commercial driver's licenses, or CDLs, since a Department of Transportation program recognizing the driving experience the Soldiers received while in uniform began in 2011.

"I am proud that so many have used this program to secure careers in the transportation sector," U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx said. "Just as important, we want to put their valuable skills and experience to work driving the nations' economy."
