Below is a small set of photographs from an unidentified unit in Europe. The bumper code markings on the truck are OIS-157-O which may represent Oise Intermediate Section (OIS), 157th Ordnance Battalion. (However, the unit identification is uncertain, since 157th Ordnance Bomb Disposal Squad also served in Europe.)
