    Recruits of Lima Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, do pushups during a physical training session June 21, 2013, on Parris Island, S.C. Recruits performed various exercises meant to strengthen their bodies to meet the Marine Corps’ high physical fitness standards. Lima Company is scheduled to graduate Sept. 6, 2013. 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 50 percent of males and 100 percent for females in the Marine Corps. (Photo by Lance Cpl. Caitlin Brink)
