If we're talking casualty rates then the US Army Air Force's 8th Air Force had the highest casualty rate of any US formation of the war.

But, those are not directly comparable to ground combat. U.S. Army ground troops suffer fewer casualties than USMC ground troops (all things considered) - and it is a function of operational priorities.
