I work in the logistics/supply chain industry and can tell you that truck drivers are in high demand all across the country. There is a significant shortage of truckers because there hasn't been enough new drivers coming in to replace the retiring ones, and the demand continues to increase. With that demand comes higher pay and bonuses. Even more so for special qualifications like HAZMAT, oversized/special loads, etc. Yes, if you go to a institution approved by the VA, the GI Bill can pay for it. I would advise that you get as many special qualifications as you can get besides the basic driving.

Use this link to find out if your institution is approved by the VA. As far as what they cover, I have no idea.
