*    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.
**  Comparison group includes civilians in the work force.
***Includes individuals who indicated non-Hispanice ethnicity or did not respond to ethnicity question.
Rows and columns may not add to totals due to rounding.
