It's PARRIS Island. My son graduated in the Honor Platoon in 2006, 2 deployments and many decorations. His graduation was most impressive ceremony ever, the proudest day in the life of our family. Semper Fi!
Here is a cut and paste: I graduated Marine Corps Boot Camp in 2012 and my Guide was promoted to Lance Corporal; however it’s not an easy task. Three things must happen to be pinned E3 Lance Corporal on Graduation day: Be your Platoon’s Guide Be a Contract PFC Be your Company Honorman

I just thought they had extra chevrons laying-around so said "What about him..?"
@@shadowolph1 100%. Our guide graduated as a LCPL. He was a contract PFC, Guide, and Honor grad. He eventually went Recon.
Why do the Marines have such a low reenlistment rate? The lowest of all the branches.
After getting butt-stroked like that a few times I thought "What am I doing here?!!"
