The number's on the side are the USMC registration number. Rather than put unit markings on the truck, the Marine Corps simply stencil's the reg. number on the truck. They don't receive unit marking's for the most part but occasionally you'll see one that's been personalized with some artwork.

Do yourself a hugh favor and replace the fuel line from the filter to the pump on the engine. Its a AN10 ends and you can go 1/2 or 3/8 hose. They are known for cracking and loosing prime and making them really hard starting. I just replaced mine a few weeks back and the best money I have spent on the truck yet !!
