    A large group of military recruits in camouflage uniforms are engaged in a physical training or drill exercise outdoors on a dirt surface surrounded by tall trees. The recruits appear to be shouting and moving in a coordinated manner, consistent with a military boot camp or basic training environment. Their shaved heads and matching uniforms suggest they are in an early stage of military training.

    Recruits of India Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, do jumping jacks during an incentive training session Sept. 16, 2014, on Parris Island, S.C. Incentive training consists of physical exercises administered in a controlled and deliberate manner and is used to correct minor disciplinary infractions. 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)
