If the frame # is 0539-15814 it certainly is not a REO. American Motors General, or Kaiser Jeep maybe. So many replacement data plates were made when trucks were rebuilt it is tough to figure out sometimes. End user units were known to "make" trucks to replace some which were "lost"...
This is a good series of posts, lots of information. Last new Binders we got in the Army in 1964 or so was some Scouts. 14087 paint and we used em for mail delivery out of Battalion to the outposts. They had the half a V8 engine. 154 cubes or close and mostly Jeep running gear..

The hood star on a angle is new to me. Maybe the applier was looking at the passenger windshield when masking it. What are those fender mounted lights? Special USAREUR signals?
Is the valve on the IP a electric turn on and not an electric shutoff? Seems to me that if you disconnect the wire, the truck will not run. The same wire you are supposed to disconnect when you are priming, by engine cranking, the new fuel filter, so the engine will not poop and pop until...
