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. Tables do not include 858 individuals classified as general officers by DMDC (2 male and 0 female Army, 573 male and 15 female Marine Corps, and 249 male and 19 female Air Force).  The "General Officer" category is officially called "General Officers and Executives, N.E.C."  It includes  "...all directors, planners and executives not elsewhere classified, and all Marine Corps full Colonels."
2. "Non-occupational" may include students, patients, those with unassigned duties, and unknowns.
Rows and columns may not add to totals due to rounding.
