ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Daniel Doss of Melton Truck Lines is our guest as we continue to feature the members of the Elite 11 from Transition Trucking’s Driving For Excellence Award. Catching up with Daniel just days before his first anniversary on the road with Melton, we look back at his rookie year as a professional driver following his retirement from the Air Force. Getting the call that Melton wanted to nominate Daniel for the Driving For Excellence Award came as a bit of surprise in what has been a seemingly very fast year.
Daniel talks to us about how he found his path to service in the Air Force – following in a long family tradition of military service across generations in and multiple branches of the military. One of the highlights of Daniel’s look back at his time in the Air Force is hearing his memories of leading the Honor Guard at Joint Base Lewis-McChord near Tacoma, Washington.
In discussing his transition to trucking, Daniel places a good deal of credit on the success he has seen in his first year on the road to his wife, Brandy. You’ll hear the role that Brandy has played in being a supportive resource on the phone as well as her efforts on the homefront with their three children. Speaking of family, Daniel’s big blue Melton truck was an instant hit with his seven-year-old son.
