    Recruits of Platoon 3044, India Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, prepare to clean the floor shortly after waking on their first official training day March 25, 2014, on Parris Island, S.C. The formal 70-day training schedule begins about a week after recruits arrive. India Company is scheduled to graduate June 13, 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)
