Rct. Karl Hexamer, Platoon 3098, Mike Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, explains what commitment means to him Oct. 7, 2014, on Parris Island, S.C. Recruits listened as their senior drill instructors used their personal experiences to explain the importance of unwavering commitment to fellow Marines, mission accomplishment and the Marine Corps. Hexamer, 24, from Raynham, Mass., is scheduled to graduate Dec. 19, 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)
