    Drill Instructor Sgt. Megan E. Roberts encourages recruits of Oscar Company, 4th Recruit Training Battalion, to move faster during a physical fitness session April 1, 2015, on Parris Island, S.C. Recruits participate in more than 30 physical training sessions throughout boot camp to prepare for the Marine Corps’ high physical fitness standards. Roberts, 27, is from Geneseo, Ill. Oscar Company is scheduled to graduate June 19, 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)
