I believe these are Swedish soldiers from 1974.

What is this vehicle, looks like a U.S. M7 Priest that has had its front remodeled right!

I got it now, its an upgrade, Post War, we see it like you said, M7B2, as used in the Korean War,  has its cannon raised higher than the WWII one. I was thinking it was either a one of a kind modification, or a specific BW modification.

 

 

Service in Korea

While the original M7 and M7B1 models were heavily utilized in WWII, their howitzers initially lacked the necessary range and elevation to counter the steep, rugged geography of the Korean peninsula. To solve this, existing M7 variants were rapidly converted into the M7B2 configuration to provide vital mobile indirect fire support for advancing United Nations and US ground force.

Soldiers from the Swedish Skaraborgs regemente mid 1970’s. Base maintenance personnel never thought they would be spending so much time unclogging drains.
