The ammunition resupply hike is six kilometers and recruits take turns carrying various size ammunition cans filled with dirt simulating the weight of the rounds. Halfway through the maneuver, the ammunition cans were handed over to the company’s follow series to carry back.  Today, all male recruits recruited from recruiting stations west of the Mississippi are trained at MCRD San Diego. The depot is responsible for training approximately 16,000 recruits annually. Golf Company is scheduled to graduate May 8.
