Staff Sgt. Mike Claborn currently serves as a Marine Corps drill instructor with Echo Company, 2nd Recruit Training Battalion, at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, S.C. Claborn joined the Marine Corps in May 2006 and became a drill instructor in March 2013. “I became a drill instructor because I wanted to give something back to the Marine Corps after all the Marine Corps has given me,” said Claborn, a native of Hurst, Texas. “I wanted the challenge and satisfaction of turning civilians into Marines … and I’m looking forward to continuing making Marines over the next two years.” About 600 Marine Corps drill instructors shape the approximately 20,000 recruits who come to Parris Island annually into basic United States Marines. 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. Octavia Davis)
