Recruits of Delta Company, 1st Recruit Training Battalion, wash off their gas masks after completing chemical and biological warfare defense training Oct. 29, 2013, on Parris Island, S.C. This training ensures recruits are confident and comfortable with using their gas masks in a chemically or biologically contaminated environment. 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)
