What branch of the US military has lost more battles the army or the marines?
A difficult question, but it could be said that the US Army has lost more battles than the US Marines because the US Army has fought more battles than the US Marines. In some battles, victory or loss is debatable. At Chosin Reservoir the Marine retreat (or advance to the rear as it was called) has been blamed on the Army.
Did the US Army or the US Marine Corps kill more Japanese soldiers in combat during World War 2?
There were only six divisions of US Marines, all of which fought in the Pacific. There were also fifteen or more US Army divisions which fought in the Pacific, plus the air force during the war was the US Army Air Force. There were no Marines fighting in New Guinea or the Philippines, and there were army troops present at Guadalcanal, the Marianas and Okinawa. The Marines did a magnificent job, and the Marine Corps PR office perhaps even exceeded this effort in publicizing the "all Marine" operations, such as Tarawa, Peleliu and Iwo Jima. But, just like in WWI, about five percent of US combat troops were Marines, but the publicity they got was many multiples higher. There should be no doubt which service killed more Japanese soldiers (not to mention all the Germans and Italians).
What peninsula in the Philippines that was defended by American marines?
There may have been more than one, but the one that made the news was, of course, Corregidor (not sure if the spelling is right), which was the location of a fortress which was assumed to be impregnable. The troops were US Army ---not Marines. Marines were used later to re-capture many of the islands and allowed the army to return to Philippines. Several "army" infantry Divisions fought throughout the Philippines during the liberation, which allowed General MacArthur to return.

Individual Marines, or the Corps as a whole? The Marine Corps is extremely stingy with its medals. Things that in the Army will get you an Army Commendation Medal won't get you any medals at all in the Marines. The Marines also don't have a lot of the service ribbons the Army has.
