Rct. Michael Amador, Platoon 1053, Charlie Company, 1st Recruit Training Battalion, clears his gas mask during chemical warfare defense training June 3, 2014, on Parris Island, S.C. Amador, a 21-year-old from Jackson Heights, N.Y., and his fellow recruits were exposed to nonlethal tear gas used to simulate the stresses of a chemically contaminated environment. Charlie Company is scheduled to graduate July 25, 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)
