U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. Robert A. Atwood currently serves as a senior drill instructor with Lima Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, S.C. Atwood joined the Marine Corps in April 2010. “I’m really passionate about everything I do,” said Atwood, a 31-year-old native of Chicago. “I love the Marine Corps and everything the Marine Corps has to offer. To put a little bit of Sergeant Atwood into the Marine Corps and influence it in a positive way just fascinated me.” About 600 Marine Corps drill instructors shape the approximately 19,000 recruits who come to Parris Island annually into basic United States Marines. Parris Island is home to entry-level enlisted training for approximately 49 percent of male recruits and 100 percent of female recruits in the Marine Corps. (U.S. Marine Corps video by Lance Cpl.
