Rct. Corinne N. Dexter, Platoon 4009, Papa Company, 4th Recruit Training Battalion, surges toward a simulated enemy Jan. 17, 2015, on Parris Island, S.C., during bayonet training. The bayonet assault course is comprised of five simulated enemies that the recruits attack with a bayonet attached to the end of their rifles. This training simulates a close encounter with an enemy. Dexter, 18, from Tulsa, Okla., 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 Cpl. Jennifer Schubert)
