The BBC isn't American. To them, the proper-noun capital-letter Marines would be the Royal Marines. In reverse, a member of the U.S. Marines is a Marine in the American media, and a member of the Royal Marines is a British marine. Theirs is an army, while ours is an Army. It's an old usage convention.
