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. American Indian, Alaska Native
3. The Army does not report data on the number of active duty enlisted personnel in either the Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander (NHPI) or "Two or more" category. Caution should be used in comparing
the racial composition of the Army’s enlisted force with those of the other Services.
Rows and columns may not add to totals due to rounding.
