Sgt. Juan Ponce Jr., a drill instructor for Platoon 3009, India Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, leads an incentive training session Dec. 10, 2013, to correct minor disciplinary infractions in his recruits on Parris Island, S.C. Incentive training consists of physical exercises administered in a controlled and deliberate manner and is a method drill instructors such as Ponce, 28, from Gadsden, Ala., use to instill discipline in their recruits. India Company is scheduled to graduate Feb. 14, 2014. 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 of females in the Marine Corps. (Photo by Cpl. Caitlin Brink)
