Recruits of Platoon 3009, India Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, hurriedly put on their uniforms Dec. 10, 2013, on Parris Island, S.C. Recruits wake up at 4 a.m. and immediately begin their morning routine of shaving and cleaning the barracks. Drill instructors stress attention to detail and cleanliness early in training to instill discipline in recruits. India Company is scheduled to graduate Feb. 14, 2014. 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 Cpl. Caitlin Brink)
