Default [MC] WWII equipment questions

I have a couple of questions about how Mass Combat regards certain World War II equipment. Namely, 1) what sort of element would a WC-51 ¾-ton weapons carrier be, and 2) would the three-man BAR team in a Rifle squad be considered a HSW element or just part of the Riflemen element (or something else entirely)?

I'd think a WC-51 or really most of that series would be Light Truck elements or Motor Recon depending on role.

Organic LMGs or automatic rifles should probably just be treated as part of a rifle element, albeit one of better equipment quality than one that had nothing but bolt-action rifles.

I'm no expert on Mass Combat or WW2 but my intuition is that if the 3man BAR team is standard within an infantry squad then it should be factored into the score for the squad rather than treated separately.
