Welcome. Your 4L80E is in limp mode if it won't shift out of second. If the TCM stays hot, that is what is draining your batteries. Sounds like now the TCM has died. Maybe this manual can help you.

You have a very special M38A1. As you have surmised, it is a USMC Jeep with the high frequency long range radio set. It would have had the 100 amp generator (4 groove pulley) system as well. It could very well be one of the late production (1964) with positrack front axle. To determine the...
Ah you have some learning to do grasshopper. The CUCVIIs have (had in your case) 24 volt starters, and a solid state 12/24 volt converter to charge battery #2. Tons of info on these here on SS thanks to member stonepicker.
