    Drillmasters, who are experts on the Drill and Ceremonies Manual, assess Platoon 3070, Lima Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, during their initial drill evaluation July 15, 2013, on Parris Island, S.C. Recruits received a grade based on their abilities to perform the drill movements as a unit. Lima Company is scheduled to graduate Sept. 6, 2013. 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 50 percent of males and 100 percent for females in the Marine Corps. (Photo by Cpl. Caitlin Brink)
