Senior drill instructor Sgt. Jevaughn Daye watches as recruits of Platoon 3048, Kilo Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, practice close-order drill movements May 14, 2014, on Parris Island, S.C. Drill instructors like Daye, 25, from Las Vegas, stress the importance of attention to detail and teamwork during each drill session. Close-order drill helps transform recruits into Marines by developing teamwork and unit cohesion while instilling discipline by teaching habits of precision and immediate response to orders. Kilo Company is scheduled to graduate July 11, 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)
