Opel
Hi there,
This looks like an Opel Blitz bus to me. Individual styles of buses are very difficult to ID, but this appears like a former tourist bus (high viewing windows on the top edges), and this type of bus may have been made by Doebelner Coachwork Factory in Saxony.
Cheers
Steve

Steve is quite correct.
Here is a pic of a Wehrmacht specific bus that shows the same front end.

Stive and Bill! Thank you very much! I appreciate your help!
This is the best what I can do with this photo after some treating in Photoshop but it looks a bit better than I posted before.

Hi Alexander:
Yes, I had to do the same to make sure of the grille/radiator mask.
As Steve so rightly points out, busses can sometimes be almost impossible to identify due to the large number of coachbuilders that all had their own designs.
For example, here is a Ludwig "Autobahn" bus on the same Opel chassis.

Hello! To me it looks like a Henschel type 33 truck but I confused how its side grilles looking (3 wide grooves). What will be thoughts on this truck: is this Henschel produced one with such modification of this part or it was produced under license of Henschel by Magirus?
Thanks in advance for any help!

There is another set of photos with vehicles to ID. All came from an album of a member 18 IR who was a driver in his unit (or he loved cars and bikes very much at least) since album is Klondike with photos of all sorts of vehicles. I appreciate any help with identification of photos from this album!
There are first five:
