A female student with Infantry Training Battalion carries another female student during the movement-under-fire portion of the Combat Fitness Test at Marine Corps Base Camp Geiger, N.C., Sept. 26, 2013. Fifteen female Marines, just graduated from basic training, became the first women to attend the ITB course this week as part of ongoing research into opening combat-related job fields to women. The female Marines are expected to fulfill the ITB fitness standards to continue in the course, but will not receive the 0311 infantry occupational-specialty upon graduation.
