    Rct. Eduardo J. Rivera, a 19-year-old native of Dumont, N.J., is currently training at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, S.C., in hopes of earning the title United States Marine. Rivera is training with Platoon 2061, Hotel Company, 2nd Recruit Training Battalion, and is scheduled to graduate Aug. 7, 2015. “I joined to make a change in my life and to give back to this country,” said Rivera, who graduated from Dumont High School in 2014. 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)
