  Note:  Officer gains reflect an addition to the officer ranks. This addition can reflect a new accession, a movement from another component, or the return of the 
      officer to the same component.  The OSD definition of an officer gain is a transaction in a database that reflects the addition of an SSN that was not in the previous file.
  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. Comparison group for gains includes 18-39 year-old members of the civilian workforce, October 2011-September 2012 average.
  3. American Indian, Alaska Native
  4. The Army does not report data on the number of active duty warrant officers or active duty warrant officer gains 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 warrant officer corps or warrant officer gains with those of the other Services.
  5. Officer gain data does not contain Unknowns for ethnicity.
      Rows and columns may not add to totals due to rounding.
