El Alamein's "I Get Pissed Off When You Spell My Name Wrong" Edges:

 Melee: KM2000 vs. Bolo:  When it comes to a close-quarters bladed battle, the smaller the blade, the better. The smaller KM2000 is better designed than the Bolo, even though both are single-edged blades, because of its thrusting design and slashing capabilities. The Bolo is better suited for slashing only, leaving it too big, too bulky, and not versatile enough to compete.

Edge: Kampfschwimmer

 Pistols: H&K MK23 vs. Armscor Tactical M1911:  Both pistols shoot the damning .45 ACP round, but the larger magazine of the M1911 allows for one more shot, translating to one more possible kill. Sure, it's not a big advantage, but it's all I've got to go off to make my decision.

Edge: Philippine Marine Corps Recon

 Submachine Guns: MP7 vs. M3 Grease Gun:  The Grease Gun is a WWII/Korean War-era weapon, making it severely outdated in comparison to the MP7. However, it's outfitted with modern upgrades, but it's got a lower rate of fire, meaning the Kampfschwimmer can lay down concentrated fire and force the Philippine Marines to keep their heads down. That being said, the Grease Gun has the larger .45 ACP round and its lower rate of fire means they'll burn through ammunition at a much slower rate than the Germans. Both SMGs have their advantages and disadvantages, so I'm calling it even.

Edge: Even

 Assault Rifles: H&K G36K vs. PVAR Rifle:  The 5.56 NATO round is very accurate, giving both rifles excellent ballistics trajectory and range. Both have a very commendable maximum range of 800 m, with a rate of fire of 750 rds/min. ... and they both have a 30 round magazine. Huh. Well, I guess it'll depend on the user wielding the weapon to make it effective. Calling this weapons comparison even.

Edge: Even

 Sniper Rifles: G24 vs. Marine Scout Sniper:  The G24 vastly outranges the Marine Scout Sniper, and its .50 caliber round is larger. It does have a much smaller mag (5 rounds to 30 rounds) but with its longer range and larger round, it allows the Kampfshwimmer sniper to take out his foe long before he's within range of the Marine Scout Sniper.

Edge: Kampfschwimmer

 Explosives: DM-39 vs. M67:  A land mine is stationary and won't explode if nobody steps on it - plus it takes a long time to set up. The M67 grenade is portable, versatile, and multiple grenades can be deployed in rapid succession. Easy win for the 'nade.

Edge: Philippine Marine Corps Recon

WINNER: KAMPFSCHWIMMER

It was a tough choice, and very close. The Kampfschwimmer, ultimately, can hit first from a longer range, and can hold up against the Philippine Marines up-close with their superior blade. In a neck-and-neck battle, small differences like these go a long way, and it'll be what gets the Germans the victory in this fight.
