Zach Bryan, a Navy veteran and country singer, recently fulfilled a promise to his late mother by earning his Bachelor's degree. Despite never having a traditional college experience due to his military and music career, Bryan's mother always hoped he would obtain a degree. After her passing in 2016, he named his first album after her. At the age of 27, Bryan completed his studies and exams while traveling for shows and deployments.

He shared the news on Twitter and later received a surprise graduation ceremony from his team.
