    Recruits of Echo Company, 2nd Recruit Training Battalion, climb a rope Sept. 26, 2016, on Parris Island, S.C. The rope climb, a part of the obstacle course, is one of many physical training tools used to help recruits improve their strength and stamina. Echo Company is scheduled to graduate Dec. 2, 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 Lance Cpl. Carlin Warren)
