    Recruits of Alpha Company, 1st Recruit Training Battalion, climb ropes during Obstacle Course II at Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego, Oct. 8. They did not attempt this obstacle during Obstacle Course I and realized how much more difficult the ropes are to climb when they are fatigued from running the course. When recruits reached the top of the rope they yelled out their name, platoon number and senior drill instructor’s name as part of their motivational climb. Today, all males recruited west of the Mississippi are trained at MCRD San Diego. The depot is responsible for training more than 16,000 recruits annually. Alpha Company is scheduled to graduate Dec. 18.
