Female drill instructors are heading to all-male Marines boot camp in San Diego as the service moves to make entry-level training coed a 'top priority'
2020-09-26
[MAIL] Female drill instructors may start training recruits at the Marine Corps' historically all-male recruit depot in San Diego, part of a year-long congressional mandate requiring entry-level training to be coed for the Marines.

Commandant Gen. David Berger made the announcement on Thursday during an event hosted by Defense One, Military.com reports.

'All of our female drill instructors are on the East Coast,' he said. '... We're going to run a couple trials this wintertime actually moving drill instructors from South Carolina to San Diego [on temporary duty] and train recruits on the West Coast to see how this is going to work.'

Female drill instructors train at the Marine Corps' East Coast schoolhouse, eventually leading recruits at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, South Carolina.
