As a Combat Engineer Platoon and Company Commander, I was required here to carry a Hazmat First Responder rating, as did the Platoon Sergeants. <br />What&#39;s probably more important, that 12B has shown that he has the desire and life skills to be successful since he has survived a tour in the Army. A lot of employers across the Construction trades look seriously at Prior Service people since they are used to maintaining a schedule and being on time, plus being part of a team.

Ended up getting NCCCO certifications as a Crne Operator and that’s what I still do and am loving it.<br />Tuition was paid through my VA education benefits and the starting pay for crane and heavy junk operators I a heck of a lot higher than the labor side of the house. Average start paying for HE is between $15 &amp; $20 per hr. and $20 &amp; $25 for cranes. Experience gets pay increases pretty quickly if you don’t mind travel. <br />That’s definitely something to check into. <br />Get back to me with any questions and I’ll be glad to answer the best I can.

All jokes aside you can do a private contract while your secret security clearance is active still. If you want to stay federal if you join FBI and become an agent for 5 years, after those 5 years as a regular agent and have eod or combat engineer experience in the field for 3 years or more you can be eligible for their EOD school. College may not be necessary either.
