The Crucible

The Crucible marks a final test of everything Marine Recruits have learned. Here, they will experience sleep deprivation, food rationing, and a series of intense mental and physical tests that will put an exclamation point on their time in recruit training. By the time Recruits take on the Crucible, they normally have around 11 weeks of solid training behind them, and it will all be needed. Tired and hungry, they must work together to overcome extreme challenges or experience the bitterness of failure as a platoon.
