    Rct. Amaia Unanue-Colon, left, Platoon 4010, and Rct. Aldona S. Prus, Platoon 4011, Oscar Company, 4th Recruit Training Battalion, climb a Confidence Course obstacle Jan. 28, 2015, on Parris Island, S.C. Recruits tackled, scaled and weaved their way through the course’s 15 obstacles, which are designed to increase self-confidence. Unanue-Colon, 19, from Avon Park, Fla., and Prus, 19, from Staten Island, N.Y., are scheduled to graduate April 3, 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 Pfc. Vanessa Austin)
