WINTERVILLE, N.C.— There was a time when Zack Cleghorn “didn’t want to wake up in the morning.”

Four years ago he finished a seven-year tour as a Marine, but returning to the United States was tough. The 28-year-old struggled with PTSD and depression and was living out of his car.

Now, he’s the first college graduate in his family and already has landed a job as an instructor at a community college.
