A recruit with Bravo Company, 1st Recruit Training Battalion, executes a rear hand punch during a Marine Corps Martial Arts Program session at Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego, Nov. 25, 2015. Although recruits will have several more MCMAP sessions before graduation, each is equally important because they will be tested on everything they learned in order to earn their tan belt in MCMAP, which is the first level and a graduation requirement. 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. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Sgt.
