How do you become an Acela Locomotive Engineer?

But giving deliberate preference in hiring to any and all veterans -- which some places apparently do -- is, frankly, stupid, unless you're trying to organize a paramilitary or mercenary corps.

Fine then, post for us a job offer that states a veteran will receive preferential hiring considerations regardless of their occupational speciality and/or status of their discharge. I'd like to see that.
