Only about 600 Marine Corps drill instructors shape the approximately 19,000 recruits who come to Parris Island annually into basic United States Marines. This handful of dedicated DIs are entrusted with sustaining a more than 242-year legacy by transforming men and women into the next generation of Marines. This is one of those drill instructors.
