Is the civilian-vehicle purchasing a common occurance?----Yes
Is that why inliners said military 302 is side-mount while mine is front-mount?----I don't know for sure, but reread my second paragraph. This is my best guess. If it has a Holley two barrel, horizontal, rear intake carb it is most likely the military engine.
Can I use the army serial # and vin # to find out what its specific duty was?...Is there an army archive for such research?---- Maybe, I doubt it. These were general purpose trucks used to haul general cargo around bases. I don't know anything about Army Archives. You can search the internet and probably find out.
