America's truck drivers are the unsung heroes in this nation of ravenous consumers, bringing goods of all kinds to our stores and our doors. More than 75% of the communities in California and likely most of America are provided exclusively by hard working truck drivers. They're the backbone of our nation and we're deeply grateful to them.

California Trucking Association www.caltrux.org CEO Shawn Yadon stops in to discuss with Thom the most valuable commodity in any industry including trucking, that is the people themselves. From his very personal commitment to the people who serve in all aspects of the trucking industry, Shawn's calling is to advocate for those doing yeoman's work and delivering America, literally. From the owner-operator to medium or large sized trucking companies, caltrux.org is the paramount voice of the trucking industry in California.

The common thread of leadership, mentoring and community in the military and the trucking industry is undeniable. Trucking is tough but rewarding, provides significant autonomy and the unique opportunity to choose your desired level of income.

America (and the trucking industry) needs you! If you're former military with experience in logistics or heavy equipment operation, there are openings for you in the trucking industry. If you're a recent high school grad, college grad or a millennial, we encourage you to take a look at the trucking industry and its many aspects as a choice for a bright and secure future.
