                                CSM LICENSED TRUCK DRIVER,
                                MICHAEL EDWARDS

                                When Michael Edwards gets behind the wheel
                                of his Peterbilt tractor trailer, he is looking at
                                a console—just a few buttons, gauges, and
                                switches shy of a Boeing 747—or so it seems.
                                Everything is easily within reach and accessible
                                the moment he needs it, including an impressive
                                10-speed gearshifter with a tortoise-shell knob
                                and a computer with a monitor that links the
                                truck with Edwards’ dispatcher. He is buckled
                                in and sitting 10 feet off the ground on air-
                                suspension seats with 210 gallons of diesel and
                                22 tons of cargo on 18 wheels.

                                When Edwards retired from the U.S. Air Force,
                                with 24 years of service, he hadn’t considered
                                truck driving as his next career, but “I saw this
                                brochure from CSM on truck driver training and
                                thought that it might be a fall-back career until
