Recruits of Hotel Company, 2nd Recruit Training Battalion, break the seal of their masks and expose themselves to tear gas during chemical and biological warfare defense training July 30, 2013, on Parris Island, S.C. The gas causes watery eyes, respiratory irritation and a burning sensation on the skin. Hotel Company is scheduled to graduate Sept. 20, 2013. 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.
