As an Englishman I think the Royal Marines have a slight advantage in training, but I admit I'm biased.

I'd tend to agree. The RM is more the equivalent of the USMC Recon units then the typical infantry ones.
I had the dubious honor of spending a couple years in Scotland (Holy Loch in the 70's) so have somewhat more familiarity with the RM then most.
