A recruit of Charlie Company, 1st Recruit Training Battalion, passes an ammunition can to another recruit during the 12 Stalls event at Edson Range, Weapons and Field Training Battalion, Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif., Sept. 23.

Today, all males recruited from west of the Mississippi are trained at MCRD San Diego. The depot is responsible for training more than 16,000 recruits annually. Charlie Company is scheduled to graduate Oct. 2
