摘要

Camp pendleton, Calif. - Like clockwork, a cadre of war-tested "grunt" sergeants at the Marine Corps School of Infantry here turns newly minted Marines into trained infantry in just 37 days, and sends 75 percent of them to active duty forces and off to war. For new Marines, it is the second stop in a training regimen that begins with boot camp and continues as they join their new units and complete mission training in preparation for forthcoming deployments.
