    Sgt. Brian Darosa, senior drill instructor for Platoon 3076, India Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, leads recruits in crunches during a physical training session Sept. 10, 2014, on Parris Island, S.C. Physical training sessions help recruits prepare for physical fitness and combat fitness tests, which they must pass to graduate. Darosa, 26, is from Waterbury, Conn. India Company is scheduled to graduate Oct. 10, 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)
