    Rct. Trey J. Commee, Platoon 1073, Bravo Company, 1st Recruit Training Battalion, uses his utility blouse to float during water survival training July 20, 2015, on Parris Island, S.C. Recruits must stay afloat or tread water for four minutes in order to pass this portion of the evaluation. Commee, 19, from Crestview, Fla., is scheduled to graduate Sept. 18, 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 approximately 50 percent of males and 100 percent of females in the Marine Corps. (Photo by Sgt. Jennifer Schubert)
