U.S. Army veteran Brandon Meredith always planned to be a truck driver. He just didn\u2019t expect to be an owner-operator driving a brand-new Kenworth truck less than a year after earning his CDL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt feels like a dream,\u201d he told Hiring Our Heroes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hiring Our Heroes, Kenworth, and FASTPORT named Meredith the 2023 Transition Trucking: Driving for Excellence award winner<\/a> during a special ceremony held at the American Trucking Associations\u2019 headquarters in Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Army<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As the Transition Trucking winner, Meredith received a Kenworth T680 Signature Edition truck equipped with a 76-inch high-roof sleeper. The truck was the first T680 Signature Edition produced at Kenworth\u2019s Chillicothe, Ohio, plant in honor of the company\u2019s 100th anniversary. Meredith described the truck as \u201cbasically a luxury apartment\u201d on wheels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s hard to put it into words,\u201d Meredith said. \u201cI feel a sense of accomplishment. I feel grateful and proud to be selected.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transition Trucking Winner Is A Third-Generation Driver<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Following a 20-year career in the U.S. Army, Meredith could have pursued a variety of post-military career paths. Instead this Illinois native followed  his childhood dream of driving a tractor-trailer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI planned my transition to trucking quite a while ago. So, once I learned the basics, I felt comfortable with driving truck. It was a smooth transition for me,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meredith spent 13 years in the Special Operations Forces. During his military service, he earned many awards and decorations. In March 2023, he retired from active duty and enrolled in Fayetteville Technical Community College\u2019s commercial driver\u2019s license (CDL) program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m a third-generation truck driver now. My father lost his life driving a truck, and while that was a hard time in my life, this profession is something I\u2019ve always wanted to pursue,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"2023
Under the Transition Trucking: Driving for Excellence program, all five finalists participated in the Washington, D.C. awards ceremony where their military service was honored. The first runner-up, Ondrae Meyers\/U.S. Marine Corps\/CRST, was awarded a $10,000 prize, and finalists Jessica White\/U.S. Army\/Stevens Transport; LaTravis Wilcox\/U.S. Marine Corps\/Prime, Inc.; Todd Kraus\/U.S. Army\/Werner Enterprises received $5,000 each.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u2018I Couldn\u2019t Have Asked for a Better Year\u2019<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For the eighth consecutive year, Hiring Our Heroes teamed up with FASTPORT and Kenworth to find America\u2019s top rookie military veteran who made the successful transition into a civilian truck driving career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Five Transition Trucking finalists were honored for their accomplishments during the Dec. 15, 2023, awards ceremony. The first runner-up, Ondrae Meyers, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, was awarded a $10,000 prize. The other finalists, Jessica White, LaTravis Wilcox, and Todd Kraus, received $5,000 each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTransition Trucking sets the bar for highlighting veterans,\u201d Meredith said. \u201cVeterans are a special breed of human beings. I\u2019ve made some lifelong friends throughout this award. I couldn\u2019t have asked for a better year.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He expects to hit the road in his new truck soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m itching to get out there,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
