Platoon 1027 recruits, Company B, provide security for their squad mates during one of the 11 obstacles of the 12-stall event of the Crucible at Edson Range, Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif., Sept. 28. Recruits learn that every member of a squad is needed in one way or another; whether it is leading, following directions to complete the objective or protecting the rest of the squad by providing security, the mission will most likely fail unless every Marine does his part.

Company B recruits put their feet out on display as they await a Navy corpsman to check their health prior to engaging in the 12-stall exercise of the Crucible at Edson Range, Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif., Sept. 28. The Crucible is a 54-hour-long training event in which recruits undergo food and sleep deprivation to create a simulated combat stress and are almost always on their feet.

A Platoon 1026 recruit, attempts to catch up with his Platoon mates after carrying ammunition cans up and down a dirt road next to the 12-stall event of the Crucible at Edson Range, Marine Corps Base Camp Pendlton, Calif., Sept. 28. For Company B recruits, the consequence for failing mission or touching the red or unauthorized part of an obstacle of 12-stall, ammunition can carries up and down a nearby road was the consequence to teach recruits that there is always a consequence to failure.

A squad of Company B recruits uses teamwork and communication to quickly accomplish one of their missions during the 12-stall portion of the Crucible at Edson Range, Marine Corps Base Camp Pendlton, Calif., Sept. 28. One of the primary reasons recruits must do the 12-stall exercises during the crucible is to improve their leadership, teamwork and communication abilities which many believe to be key to an effective fighting force.

Recruit Gabriel Nunez, Platoon 1026, Company B, attempts to solve the logistical problem of using two planks to cross three open areas during the 12-stall portion of the Crucible at Edson Range, Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif., Sept. 28. During the 12-stall exercise, leadership positions rotate after each obstacle so every recruit gets a chance to see what leadership is like.
