Description
English: Staff Sgt. Jacob E. Wilkins, a water survival instructor, teaches recruits of November Company, 4th Recruit Training Battalion, how to float during water survival training Oct. 5, 2015, on Parris Island, S.C. Recruits must tread water for four minutes in order to pass this portion of the evaluation. Wilkins, 36, is from El Paso, Texas. November Company is scheduled to graduate Dec. 4, 2015. Parris Island has been the site of Marine Corps recruit training since Nov. 1, 1915. Today, approximately 19,000 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 approximately 50 percent of males and 100 percent of females in the Marine Corps. (Photo by Lance Cpl. Vanessa Austin)
