In the end I'd have to say the US Army, because while the Marines may have garnered some great victories it's the Army that has in reality put the boots on the ground and handled the long-drawn out slugging matches as well as the aftermath of the Marine's victories.

Name some long drawn out slugging matches that the army has handled that the marines were not either the 1st to fight or apart of.
Besides, you're not even American.
