Clinton Brooks
PARRIS ISLAND, S. C.
(FHTNC) Nov. 25-Marlne Private
Clinton Brooks, son of Mrs.
Mattle S. Brooks of 7123 People
St., Covington, Ga., was grad
uated from eight weeks of re
cruit training at the Marine Co
rps Recruit Depot here.
He will now undergo from two
to four weeks of Individual com
bat training and then, after lea
ve at home, will report to his
first Marine Corps assignment.
The Intensified Marine recruit
training emphasizes rigid phy
sical conditioning and survival
techniques, both at sea and
ashore, to develop self
confidence and endurance. Ma
rksmanship with the M-14 rifle
and 45-caliber pistol are eq
ually stressed, and close order
drill instills the traditions of
Marine Corps teamwork.
A thorough study of basic mi
litary subjects, hygiene, first aid
and sanitation, and the customs,
courtesies, history and mission
of the Marine Corps serve to
polish the new Marine’s recruit
education and prepare him to join
the Marine combat forces.
