RPPC WWI US Army Soldiers Drinking Water Cart Studebaker (?) Real Photo Postcard

Description: Title/label/subject: Army soldiers posed on two vehicles; the one in front appears to be a water cart of the sort designed by Studebaker to provide soldiers with a portable supply of potable water. (In comparing what is visible with known examples of Studebaker water carts from this era, it looks to me as though they are a pretty close match). The side of the water container has some letters stamped on it; they are too faint to read, but they might spell out USQMC (US Quartermaster Corps). This was also apparently called a "water buffalo" at the time The name Boaler or Booler (or something close) is written across the stampbox (verso). This name is also on several other WWI era cards I'm offering (or have offered recently). Publisher/photographer: unknown Date: not dated, ca. 1917 or 1918, AZO paper Condition: Please examine the photos (front and back) to determine condition. NOTE: Rough - creases, corner/edge wear, fading, etc. Postcards that sell for up to $20 will ship using eBay's "Standard Envelope" option (tracked and insured); postcards that sell for over $20 will ship sandwiched between rigid foamcore (and in sleeves, in a mailer) as Ground Advantage packages (with tracking and insurance).
