Recruits of Charlie Company, 1st Recruit Training Battalion, prepare to shed their combat gear while underwater as part of the basic water survival swim assessment Feb. 3, 2014, on Parris Island, S.C. Recruits had 10 seconds to submerge themselves underwater, shed a flak vest, helmet and mock rifle before resurfacing. Removing the heavier gear helps prevent drowning. Charlie Company is scheduled to graduate April 4, 2014. (Photo by Cpl. Octavia Davis)
