Apparently the Royal Marines are holding their own against the USMC in the California desert. How can this be?

Around 800 commandos have been pitched, in the extreme weather conditions of the California desert, against troops and air power of the @USMC Marine Corps @UKinUSA https://t.co/dUK4IopDsO pic.twitter.com/VQ0KuXOuBt

Not mad, just be miffed and confused.  How can the Royal Marines hold up to a US Marine Air-Ground Task Force?  On paper this should be a walk in the park.  The Royal Marines can be counted on to their fair share of scalps but at the end of the day they should get rolled by us.

I hope this is heavily scripted or else we need to totally rethink our way of war.
