  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. ROTC - Reserve Officer Training Corps
      OCS - Officer Candidate School
      OTS - Officer Training School
  2. Although the United States Coast Guard (USCG) has a direct commissioning program, USCG data provided to Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC) do not allow calculation 
      of direct appointment by gender and race/ethnicity.
  3. 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.
  4. American Indian, Alaska Native
  5. Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander
  6. Officer gain data does not contain Unknowns for ethnicity.
