    Rct. Crystian Pliett, Platoon 4020, November Company, 4th Recruit Training Battalion, pulls herself through the sand during the Crucible on June 28, 2013, at the combat training area on Parris Island, S.C. Pliett, a 22-year-old native of Fort Wayne, Ind., continued to prove her desire to earn the title of United States Marine by completing obstacles during the 54-hour culminating event. The Crucible is designed to emphasize teamwork and adherence to the Corps' core values under arduous and stressful conditions. November Company is scheduled to graduate July 3, 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. MaryAnn Hill)
