Rct. Andres Chajuv, Platoon 3001, Mike Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, performs a set of pushups Nov. 13, 2013, during a physical training session on Parris Island, S.C. Recruits performed various exercises meant to strengthen their bodies to meet the Marine Corps’ high physical fitness standards. Combat conditioning is one of the main objectives of Marine Corps recruit training. Chajuv, 19, from West Palm Beach, Fla., is scheduled to graduate Jan. 17, 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)
