What's your opinion?
My feeling is that the Royal Marines are the "more elite" force (they are Commandos after all ;) - their selection and training process is apparently one of the longest in the world and includes mountain warfare as well as amphibious; some are also para-trained (so there is a range of specialisms). Anyway, just my opinion.
