| 1. 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. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 2. In FY03, there was a change in the way DoD reported race/ethnicity data. However, the new race data were not available for all services until after the | ||||||||||||||||||
| first quarter of FY03. As a result, the DoD data for individual race groupings reflect accessions for only the last three quarters of FY03. First quarter | ||||||||||||||||||
| total accessions were added to DoD second through fourth quarter subtotals in order to illustrate cross-year aggregate comparisons. FY03 percentages by | ||||||||||||||||||
| race grouping are for the last three quarters of FY03. | ||||||||||||||||||
