1. Calculations do not include 885 White, 36 Black, 4 AIAN, 10 Asian, 2 NHPI, 7 multiple race, and 31 unknowns.
The total is 975 (19 Hispanic and non-Hispanic) O-6 officers classified as general officers by the services.
The "General Officer" category is officially called "General Officers and Executives, N.E.C." It includes "...all directors, planners and executives not elsewhere classified, and all
Marine Corps full Colonels."
2. Non-occupational includes patients, students, those with unassigned duties, and unknowns.
3. Includes individuals who indicated non-Hispanic ethnicity or did not respond to the ethnicity question.
4. The Army does not report data on the number of active duty officers in either the NHPI or "Two or more" category. Caution should be used in comparing the racial
composition of the Army’s officer corps with those of the other Services.
5. 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.
