Bob,
Our resident Dodge expert from Scotland will no doubt chime in shortly, but the Dodge in the picture is a regular Dodge D15 15-cwt 4x truck. It is typical of the Modified Conventional Pattern (MCP) vehicles: civilian chassis/cab, with military cargo box, lighting, wheels/tyres, etc. There was no such thing as a CMP 2 wheel drive front axle, only a Chevrolet, Ford, and in this case a Dodge axle.
HTH,
Hanno
