No; apart from its original meaning, in German "K.O." is also used as a colloquial term for "completely exhausted", "dead tired", "bushed" etc. but not for "dead".
Apart from that, it would be very unusual for a dead soldier to be propped in a vehicle seat like this for transport and if this were a dead body in a sitting position, I would expect the head to loll to the side.
The dark skin coloration surely simply results from the dust and dirt one had to endure when traveling over prolonged distances on Russian country roads in an open vehicle.
No; it means "The victorious gun crew".
(The term Bedienung has other meanings, too, but in this context it refers to a Geschützbedienung, i.e. a gun crew)
"Fluchtartig verlassen", means "left/evacuated in a hurry"
"Rata's griffen an" means "Ratas have attacked". "Rata" [= "rat"] was the nickname for the Soviet Polikarpov I-16 fighter aircraft [see: Polikarpov I-16 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ]. The German soldiers also called them "Nähmaschinen" [= "sewing machines"] because of the even chugging noise of their engines.
