My old man drove a truck in WWII for the USAAF. Lots of stories about being strafed and shot at by snipers, but also lots of stories about crates that "accidentally" fell off the back of the truck and the contents were distributed amongst the front-liners. Stuff like whiskey, cigars, nylon stockings (used for bartering for services with the indigenous female population), cigarrettes, etc.
