    Rct. Adam J. Mutz, Platoon 3061, Mike Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, slides down a Confidence Course obstacle May 31, 2016, on Parris Island, S.C. This obstacle requires recruits to slide across a rope in three different positions without falling into the pond beneath. Mutz, 20, from Allentown, Pa., is scheduled to graduate Aug. 5, 2016. Parris Island has been the site of Marine Corps recruit training since Nov. 1, 1915. Today, approximately 19,000 recruits come to Parris Island annually for the chance to become United States Marines by enduring 12 weeks of rigorous, transformative training. Parris Island is home to entry-level enlisted training for approximately 49 percent of male recruits and 100 percent of female recruits in the Marine Corps. (Photo by Cpl. Vanessa Austin)
