    Staff Sgt. Tamara Moody, the chief drill instructor of Platoons 4038 and 4039, November Company, 4th Recruit Training Battalion, watches recruits do crunches during a physical training session Sept. 17, 2013, on Parris Island, S.C. Recruits endure many physical training sessions to build them up to the Marine Corps' demanding standards. Moody is a 30-year-old native of Baton Rouge, La. November Company is scheduled to graduate Nov. 15, 2013. Parris Island has been the site of Marine Corps recruit training since Nov. 1, 1915. Today, approximately 20,000 recruits come to Parris Island annually for the chance to become United States Marines by enduring 13 weeks of rigorous, transformative training. Parris Island is home to entry-level enlisted training for 50 percent of males and 100 percent of females in the Marine Corps. (Photo by Lance Cpl. MaryAnn Hill)
