    Really loving the mod! I prefer fictional non-high tech factions to the more modern ones.

    The idea sounds good for the Marines, They are looking good already!

    If I could make some suggestion? These might help you with ideas.

    A 'reserve force' (having the marines into a regular force, instead) that sits in the middle between the professional Army and the militia:

    -Reserves used for defending military installations that need that bit more protection than checkpoints, road blocks which are guarded by militia troops.

    -Gear on them (Webbing, Backpacks, Shovels etc.) to make them look more soldier-ish. But not too much, perhaps gear mixed bewteen CDF, Takistan and Chedaki insurgents (cold war stuff).

    -Transported by Trucks.

    -Using the same weapons as militia, but some FALS, or other cold war weapons thrown in.

    -Perhaps a mix of camouflage: Olive green trousers with a camouflage smock (Rhodesian) or vice versa, some with just one set of the same (showing how supplies are low).

    -Steel helmets as suggested with marines, with the scrim net over them- variety is good, some with nets some without, perhaps foliage on the helmets?

    -Officers with a chunky, classic radio (PRC 349?)

    Perhaps you can combine the two together, rather than having marines, you could have a reserve force with light amphibious capability.

    Also, are you thinking about 'beefing' up the other Caprian soldier's gear? I like to see troops that look like they're geared up. I think it would be good if you gave militia steel helmets, they are quite cheap so I'm sure Capraia could afford them. Also you could give them ALICE backpacks in the ACE version, if you want to stick to 'history' these are quite affordable for a poor country as well.
