Kaitlyn Stephen, Platoon 4022, Oscar Company, 4th Recruit Training Battalion, checks for simulated explosive devices during a Crucible event July 11, 2013, at the combat training area on Parris Island, S.C.

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)
