That must have been a cable truck with that roll mounted in the back. What model of box would it be with those extensions sticking up over the wheel wells? Could they have been some sort of seat back?

Hadn't even noticed those yet! Yes, they are seat backs, denoting this is the personnel variant. See the pic below.

F15A during the liberation of Amsterdam.

Note the cab, it seems to have been stripped of its roof and doors and fitted with a canvas top.
