Rct. Nick S. Maze, Platoon 2041, Fox Company, 2nd Recruit Training Battalion, uses a compass during a land navigation exercise May 11, 2015, on Parris Island, S.C. Recruits venture into a wooded area with a compass and map to find specific locations after learning the basics of land navigation. Maze, 21, from Addison, Ala., is scheduled to graduate June 5, 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. Jennifer Schubert)
