    Rct. Alyssa Mireles, Platoon 4038, Oscar Company, 4th Recruit Training Battalion, chucks a simulated grenade during a combat fitness test Oct. 21, 2014, on Parris Island, S.C. The CFT was specifically designed to evaluate strength, stamina, agility and coordination. Mireles, 18, from Antioch, Tenn., is scheduled to graduate Nov. 7, 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)
