Rct. Billy D. Hart, Platoon 2018, Hotel Company, 2nd Recruit Training Battalion, practices a bayonet technique during martial arts training Jan. 14, 2016, on Parris Island, S.C. This technique, part of the Marine Corps Martial Arts Program, is designed to defend against an aggressor in close quarters. Hart, 25, from Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., is scheduled to graduate April 1, 2016. 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)
