Recruits of Echo Company, 2nd Recruit Training Battalion, prepare to descend the rappel tower at Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego, Calif., June 24. Recruits began the event by learning the techniques of fast roping and constructing their own rope harness. Each recruit executed two descents on the tower from a progressively higher platform. Annually, more than 17,000 males recruited from the Western Recruiting Region are trained at MCRD San Diego. Echo Company is scheduled to graduate July 8.
