I found this on the website  www.combatreform2.com/m113combat.htm
Does anyone know what aircraft or glider this is?

It seems to be a Burnelli concept with over the wing/fuselage blowing engines
to produce a STOL effect.
Maybe a variant of the two engined Burnelli GB-108..

Looks similar to a Boenig concept, we already saw here some months ago,
but sorry, couldn't find again:

It looks like one of Bernelli's designs. I'll have to check my files to be sure.

Tailplane is not Boeing model 754.
Only two engines.

Is this Boeing 3-engined, slightly asymmetric?

I've no other sources about this Boeing design, but it clearly is asymmetric, as
the third engine is on hte right hand side of the flight deck.
