USMC PI Crucible: Part 2 - Earn your EGA


Marine Recruit Depot Parris Island, S.C. The Crucible is the final test in recruit training and represents the culmination of all the skills and knowledge a Marine should possess.


Designed in 1996 to emphasize the importance of teamwork in overcoming adversity, the Crucible is a rigorous 54-hour field training exercise demanding the application of everything a recruit has learned until that point in recruit training and includes a total of 48 miles of marching.


It simulates typical combat situations with strenuous testing, hardship and the deprivation of food and sleep. (PC: USAF Tech. Sgt. Jason Robertson)
