Recruits of Delta Company, 1st Recruit Training Battalion, carry each other between stations on a Marine Corps Martial Arts Program endurance course Oct. 17, 2013, on Parris Island, S.C. Marine Corps martial arts combines hand-to-hand combat skills with mental discipline and character development to help transform recruits into honorable warriors. Recruits must earn tan belts, the first belt level in the program, in order to graduate. Delta Company is scheduled to graduate Dec. 20, 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)
