| 1. In FY 2003 there was a change in the way DoD reported race/ethnicity data. The new race/ethnicity data were not available for all services until after the first | ||||||||||||||||||
| quarter of FY 2003. Therefore, DoD race and ethnicity data only represent the last three quarters of FY 2003. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 2. Population Representation in the Military Services (POPREP) is based on data from DMDC. Breakouts of accessions by service component and | ||||||||||||||||||
| prior service (PS)/NPS designation will not match reportsby individual services because of differences in defining PS accessions. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 3. The race groupings used in this table reflect the number of individuals who indicate a single racial identity. Individuals who self-identify as multiracial are | ||||||||||||||||||
| counted in the "two or more" category. | ||||||||||||||||||
