Helicopters did not exist (as standard equipment) during WW2. War material still had to be man-handled across terrain. Laborer's were often enlisted or otherwise hired to transport war material into combat areas. Allied nations usually treated native laborers far better than Axis powers did; Axis slave-laborers often worked out of fear (forced labor) for their families or their lives.
