Rct. Jason Taddio, Platoon 1014, Bravo Company, 1st Recruit Training Battalion, performs a close-order drill movement during an initial drill evaluation Dec. 8, 2014, on Parris Island, S.C. Drillmasters, experts on the Marine Corps Drill and Ceremonies manual, grade recruits on precision, attention to detail and bearing. Recruits spend four weeks preparing for the evaluation. Taddio, 21, from Marlboro, N.Y., is scheduled to graduate Jan. 30, 2015. 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 Sgt. Caitlin Brink)
