Those last pics help indeed. You truck has 20" wheels, 2 speed transfer case and helper springs on back axle. It might be worthwile to check the size of the steering box and axles as it looks like your F15A could have been:

a) upgraded with F60L components sometime during it´s post-war civilian career;

b) an "F22" as Serge suggested, although in that case it should have all sorts of late production features - see my web page http://www.geocities.com/cmpvehicles/f22.html for more details.

You may already have noticed that the swivelling tow hook is also from the later M series trucks. Any CMPs equipped with a tow hook had it rigidly (no swivel) attached to a spring that mounted to a pair of brackets that in turn were mounted either below the frame rails (generally on earlier trucks but some e.g. water tank and wireless kept this style throughout production) or between the frame rails (generally on later trucks).
