  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 FY 2003 there was a change in the way DoD reported race/ethnicity data.  The new race/ethnicity data were only made available for the last 
      three quarters of FY2003.  Thus, the FY 2003 data includes percentages for NPS accessions by  race/ethnic for the last three quarters of FY 2003 only. 
      Since we do not have full year totals, we omit the total number of accessions.
