    Sgt. Anthony R. Richardson currently serves as a Marine Corps drill instructor with Delta Company, 1st Recruit Training Battalion at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, S.C. Richardson joined the Marine Corps in June 2008 and became a drill instructor in June 2014. “I became a drill instructor because I wanted to impact the lives of young men and the future of the Marine Corps,” said Richardson, a 26-year-old native of Columbia, S.C., “Also after seeing my drill instructors and the positive role models that they were I wanted to be just like them.” About 600 Marine Corps drill instructors shape the approximately 20,000 recruits who come to Parris Island annually into basic United States Marines. 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. Jennifer Schubert)
