Second pic, bottom guy appears to be BAR assistant, but I can't quite tell if that's a M1 Carbine he's carrying; might be his mag pouch attached under the front left of his BAR ammo belt.

Can't tell what?...the barrel is stuck up from behind his shoulder...

Looks like a carbine barrel with a bayo lug to me. If we're talking about the first guy there. I see the other guy by the jeep that looks like it might be a carbine on his shoulder.

Now what kind of a vehicle is that? It looks too wide to be a Jeep. Is it a dodge power wagon type?

Yep , Dodge WC-51 I think.

Either a WC51 or 52. Can't see the front end to verify the presence of a winch.

I love those, but you don't see them as much as the Jeeps. I remember seeing one in the movie, "The Great Raid". While they were moving out, I believe the Capt. got into one.
