The platoon is a holding and rehabilitation unit for all females who are dropped from training due to medical illness or injury. Some recruits are removed from normal training due to medical or physical conditions that prevent them from safely progressing through recruit training. While assigned to the company, recruits rehabilitate in order to return to training where they left off. 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 of for females in the Marine Corps. Taylor is from Fredericksburg, Va. (Photo by Lance Cpl.
