International Harvester Corporation aka IHC
The trucks pictured are IHC M5H6 2 1/2 ton trucks
The slightly different profile of the front fenders ( compared to CCKW )
and especially the "roadster" soft top, these IHCs also had doors is a spotting feature.
If this is what your question was. :)

Hope this helps

Besides the M5H6 that John mentioned it looks like there are some M1-4 (1/2 ton), M2-4 (3/4 ton), and M3-L4 (1.5 ton) trucks in that convoy.

Great picture of USMC troops.
