39th Infantry Regiment ( War of 1812 ) " For the current 39th Infantry Regiment , see 39th Infantry Regiment ( United States ) " The 39th United States Infantry was a regiment of the regular Army . It was authorized on January 29 , 1813 and recruited in East by Col . Williams * 1Tennessee . It was commanded by Colonel John Williams , who had previously led the Mounted Volunteers of East Tennessee . On December 31 , 1813 Major - General Thomas Pinckney ordered the regiment to join Andrew Jackson ' s force contermanding orders that had been sent from General Flournoy at New Orleans who wanted them there , * 1 thus providing a disciplined core and strategic resupply for his command which was down to about 75 men eating roots and acorns . * 2 The historian Henry Adams speculated that , without this regiment , Jackson would have fared no better in 1814 than he had the previous year . Jackson welcomed the 39th . Since the beginning of his campaign in the Creek War , Jackson was troubled by serious discipline problems with his militia and volunteers , particularly the Georgians . So he prosecuted a Private John Woods , only 18 under false charges . Woods had spent his last month in the camp of the 39th . The night before his execution the officers of the 39th signed and sent Jackson a petition asking for mercy . He not only failed to grant it , he made the 39th shoot him . * 1 He told his quartermaster that " I am truly happy in having the Colonel with me . His regiment will give strength to my arm and quell mutiny " . The 39th was never happy with Jackson after that and Col . Williams never returned to lead the unit . Williams said in a campaign pamphlet in 1828 that Woods cried " bitterly and loudly " ; the Jackson camp claimed he was belligerent and deserved to die . * 3 At the Battle of Horseshoe Bend , Jackson placed the regiment , ( because they were the best - trained soldiers he had ) * 1 in the center of his assault force . Consequently , the 39th suffered significant casualties — 20 killed and 52 wounded , and those figures are disputed . * 1 Col . Williams reported to Sec . of War Armstrong that " one half of the officers and one sixth of the troops of the 39th engaged in the battle of Tohopeka are among the killed and wounded . The officers remaining with the regiment fit for duty are insufficient for ordinary camp duty . " It is said that the Creek nation lost more casualties that day than any other one day in the history of the entire Indian Wars . They gave up over a million acres of what was described as the " best land for settlement " that was left east of the Mississippi River . * 1 Postwar consolidation of regiment . In 1815 , after that war ended , the 39th was consolidated with the 8th and 24th Regiments to form the 7th Infantry Regiment . The Flag of the 39th was returned to Col . Williams and is now on display at the East Tennessee History Center in Knoxville . It was engravved by handwork by Col . Williams ' sister - in - law , Mary ( Polly ) Lawson McClung * 1 Williams .

Mission . Provide reception , processing , and recruit training for male enlisted personnel following initial entry into the Marine Corps . History . 3rd Battalion . In 1921 , the MCRDSD was formally commissioned and in 1923 , it became the primary recruiting center for the west coast . During World War II , the flow of recruits into the base surged , with 18 , 000 recruits arriving in one month . [ 1 ] In 1948 , the base was formally named Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego and was home to the Recruit Training Regiment . The 3d Battalion ’ s main mission is to train new United States Marine Corps recruits , specifically males recruited from west of the Mississippi River , but also from some areas east of the river , such as Wisconsin , Michigan , the Chicago metropolitan area and New Orleans . Recruit training includes a thirteen week process during which the recruit becomes cut off from the civilian world and must adapt to a Marine Corps lifestyle . During training , drill instructors train recruits in a wide variety of subjects including weapons training , Marine Corps Martial Arts Program , personal hygiene and cleanliness , close order drill , and Marine Corps history . The training emphasizes physical fitness , and recruits must attain a minimum standard of fitness to graduate by passing a Physical Fitness Test . Recruits must also meet minimum combat - oriented swimming qualifications , qualify in rifle marksmanship with the M16A4 service rifle , and pass a 54 - hour simulated combat exercise known as " The Crucible " . Unlike training at Parris Island , recruits must leave the depot to conduct field training . Three weeks of the recruit ’ s training is spent at Edson Range aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton , where recruits fire on the rifle range , conduct field training , and undergo the Crucible . At the conclusion , recruits return to MCRD San Diego for graduation .
