That last picture is actually a later M813 5 ton and not a M54. M54 has a flat grille and a different engine.

The jeep is most likely a Willys M38A1.

The jeep is most likely a Willys M38A1.

I was thinking about a CJ-5, but I am not able to distinguish between those models.
Here you can find a recap of the models used by the Swiss Army:

M38A1s are suppose to have blackout lights instead of turn signals on the grille, but I do not if the Swiss Army or the owner changed them out.

The primary way to tell is to look at the drivers side fender and see if the indent for the slave receptacle is there.
