Deborah Benson, a drill instructor for Platoon 4016, November Company, 4th Recruit Training Battalion, shouts through a culvert to her recruits as they advance through a combat training course April 29, 2014, on Parris Island, S.C. Drill instructors such as Benson, a 25-year-old from Lynn, Mass., supervise recruits as they move through the course, making corrections and providing encouragement. November Company is scheduled to graduate May 23, 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. Octavia Davis)

    A U.S. Marine in MARPAT digital camouflage uniform navigates what appears to be a military obstacle course or training area involving a water obstacle. The Marine is carrying an M4/M16-style rifle with an optic and is stepping over or around a large log near a muddy water pit.

This appears to be a Marine Corps recruit training or obstacle course exercise.
    A military service member in digital camouflage uniform and helmet is emerging from a water obstacle during what appears to be a training exercise.
