| * Refers to NPS individuals whose first
formal application (Physical or ASVAB) was in FY 2003. |
| ** New race and ethnicity data were not
available for all Services until after the first quarter of FY03. Therefore,
DOD and civilian race and ethnicity data only represent the last three
quarters of |
| FY03. First
quarter totals, (represented by Q1) are added to DOD second through fourth
quarter subtotals for comparison purposes. Percentages are for last three
quarters of FY03. |
| *** Includes
individuals who indicated non-Hispanic ethnicity or did not respond to
ethnicity question. |
| Rows and columns may not add to
totals due to rounding. |
