    Pfc. NaChelle M. Harris, a warehouse clerk, instructs recruits of Fox Company, 2nd Recruit Training Battalion, on their next task Jan. 14, 2015, during team week on Parris Island, S.C. Harris, a 20-year-old from South Bend, Ind., and several other Marines worked with the recruits throughout the week. Team week reinforces small-unit leadership by allowing recruits to work in small teams and devise solutions to complete various tasks. Fox Company is scheduled to graduate Feb. 13, 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 Pfc. Vanessa Austin)
