Carroll Community College honors student veterans through SALUTE induction | WMAR-TV Baltimore

For Army veteran Clint Held, the transition from active duty to college began with a moment of urgency.

“I was in my car one day, about like three months of getting out from active service, and I was like, well, I need to get a plan together,” Held said.

Held, who served four years on active duty in the Army, is now on the nursing track at Carroll Community College. He was among the students recognized through SALUTE, a national honor society for student veterans, active-duty service members, and military-connected students.
