Rct. Hannah Kushner, Platoon 4030, November Company, 4th Recruit Training Battalion, aims at a simulated target July 22, 2014, on Parris Island, S.C. For five days, primary marksmanship instructors teach recruits, such as Kushner, 18, from Kalispell, Mo., the fundamentals of rifle marksmanship, firing positions, weapons safety and rifle range procedures before the recruits fire live rounds the following week. November Company is scheduled to graduate Sept. 5, 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)
