Drill instructors with Fox Company, 2nd Recruit Training Battalion, gather behind Petross Parade Deck after receiving the guidons from honor graduates of their platoons on Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, S.C. Oct. 15, 2021. "Retiring" the guidons to the drill instructors is a traditional rite of passage, signifying the end of recruit training for the Corps' newest Marines, and the changing of the guard to the platoon's next recruits.
