United States Marine Corps Rct. Mitchell L.Hoover of Platoon 1073, Delta Company, 1st Recruit Training Battalion, shouts orders to his squad during the Crucible Oct. 13, 2017, on Parris Island, S.C. The Crucible, recruit training’s 54-hour culminating event, pushes the recruits, like Hoover, 20, from Pensacola, Fla., to work together and complete tasks in a stressful environment. Delta Company is scheduled to graduate Oct. 20, 2017. 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 49 percent of male recruits and 100 percent of female recruits in the Marine Corps. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Joseph Jacob)
