If you're talking about the ones who drove supply trucks during the war years, the hardest working men were women. https://vietnamnews.vn/sunday/features/947180/female-drivers... | ||||||||

The story wasn't actually about the trucker being hard working (or not), though I'm sure he was. He wasn't actually trying to make people believe he literally was the hardest working. The joke is that everyone else he went to war with was claiming to be something else, so he must have delivered all the supplies himself. The response is interesting to me, because having fought in a war, though I am not a US veteran -- I instantly got it. And the place I heard it from was more veteran dominated, and everyone instantly understood/appreciated the joke. | ||||||||
