Any one know how to track info on military vehicles

I got my first 57 truck in 1968 at a forest service auction. They had "decommissioned" it by sanding down all the identification markings (text, logos, etc.) and repainted it light forest service green. In the 50's and 60's my Dad bought a lot of Korean War vintage Jeeps, that had been recycled thru the forest service or other governmental agencies. Our favorite as a M38A1 with 24 volt sealed electrical system, underwater intake and exhaust and PTO winch. I don't remember any from WWII, I suspect they just left them in place, destroyed them or gave them to our allies if they were overseas at the end of the war.
