	1. Tier 1 indicates individuals with at least a high school diploma.  Tier 2 indicates alternate high school credentials, such as the
	General Educational Development certificate (GED).  Tier 3 represents non-high school graduates.
	2. 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.
	3. American Indian, Alaska Native
	4. 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.
	5. Civilian numbers and percentages combine Tiers 1 and 2.
	Rows and columns may not add to totals due to rounding.
