Dude SAS guardsmen sweet... And Ram, I bet you could get some Hummer models that would work exeptionally well. And give 'em all the HUGE backpacks that those American marines wear. And put goggles pushed up on their helmets, that would pretty much do it I think.
PS: Canada has a better anti-terrorist unit; we've got,...uhh,...mounties...uhhh,...snow?...*sigh*....

People all your anti-terror forces can go home. GSG-9 beats them all And now enough with that patriotistic babbleing and back to topic. I've already seen many forces based on police units (Grenadiers and Stormtroopers as SWAT and Guardsmen as convicts) but never seen any army based on USMC or at least I didn't recognize them as such. So go for it and ´give it a try

Uncle Sam's Misguided Children... Grenadiers, Restricted Troops: Stormtroopers, Carapace Armor, Heavy Weapon Platoons, Mechanized. Remember, Chimeras are amphibeous.

usms would be pretty cool...but it would take a heck lotta time to do so especially on the storm trooper models ...unless ure intending to use normal cadian shock troops or wut not. takes some planning like designing and wut bits to put on ure models to make em look like USMC

I would use kaskrin models and mordian heads, that would be expensive and a waste of nice models though...........

whatever inspires you.
if I needed to do a USMC style army, I'd use catachan arms with some greenstuff rolls to make rolled up sleeve effects just paint the top of the shoulder in the shirt color then use the roll of greenstuff to make the rolled up sleeve cuff part then go flesh below that. that's the most USMC thing I can think of for guardsmen - there are no good softcaps that look marine-ish in all the lines unfortunately so yeah.
