The honormen of Fox Company, 2nd Recruit Training Battalion, return the guidons to their drill instructors during the graduation ceremony at Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego, Jan. 13. These guidons have been carried by the platoon guides for the duration of training, and this portion of the ceremony marks the disbanding of the platoons. Annually, more than 17,000 males recruited from the Western Recruiting Region are trained at MCRD San Diego.
