    Senior Drill Instructor Staff Sgt. Kyle P. Andrews, Platoon 1081, Charlie Company, 1st Recruit Training Battalion, speaks to his recruits for the first time July 25, 2015, on Parris Island, S.C. Andrews, 30, from Decatur, Ind., told his recruits what would be expected of them during their journey to become Marines and also what to expect from the Marines who would train them. Charlie Company is scheduled to graduate Oct. 16, 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 approximately 50 percent of males and 100 percent of females in the Marine Corps. (Photo by Sgt. Jennifer Schubert)
