Pre-WW2 USMC years of service hashmarks

I have a 1932 dated US Marine Corps dress blue tunic that has two hashmarks, for years of service, sewn on one of the sleeves.

 

What was the time period needed for each stripe / hashmark back in those days? Three years or four?

 

Thanks!

The hash marks on your uniform represent 4 years of service each.
