    Rct. Bryce C. Arnold, Platoon 2020, Golf Company, 2nd Recruit Training Battalion, receives his first recruit haircut Dec. 15, 2014, on Parris Island, S.C. Male recruits get buzz cuts weekly until week 12 when they earn their first high-and-tight style haircut right before the Crucible. Arnold, 23, from Lebanon, Tenn., is scheduled to graduate March 13, 2015. 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 Sgt. Caitlin Brink)
