Emmett Crosby Jr.
Emmet was first introduced to the trucking world when he was in the Army as infantry. One day at the end of the day, he and his fellow infantrymen were resting under a tree, after a hard day. They were watching some truckers, trying to put their trucks where they were supposed to be. He watched for a while as the truckers failed to get the trucks in place. Finally, knowing it was simple (at least to him) he walked over and asked if they wanted some help. The men kind of giggled, because, after all, they were the truckers. Who did this upstart think he was, anyway? Ready for a laugh, they said "sure." Long story short, they quickly stopped laughing and started getting Emmett assigned to his new job!!!!!! He was a trucker from that day on.
