1923 Durant.
A link to the Shorpy page. There are quite a lot of very sharp Christopher Helin photos there, all taken back in the day - late teens/early twenties.
I was intrigued by this one so posted it on the aaca forum. Someone knew and posted a link. US forces in France 1961-68....
1929 Buick.
The car was a 1929 Packard. The truck? Maybe a GMC??
Not earlier than 1928 by the cars.
