    U.S. Marine Corps recruit Tyreike Robinson, a 20-year-old native of Nashville, Tenn., shouts while sliding down a rope obstacle during the Confidence Course on Parris Island, S.C. Robinson is with Platoon 3060, India Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, and is scheduled to graduate Aug. 25, 2017. “I wanted to better myself and become a stronger person,” said Robinson. “Joining the Marines was a way to put my life back on track and give me the discipline and strength to push through any hard times later in life.” Approximately 19,000 recruits come to Parris Island annually for the chance to become United States Marines by enduring 12 weeks of rigorous, transformative training. Parris Island is home to entry-level enlisted training for 49 percent of male recruits and 100 percent of female recruits in the Marine Corps. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Joseph Jacob)
