1. Tables do not include 1 Marine Corps O-6 officer classified as general officers by the services.  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.
Source: Military data are provided by the Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC).  Officer gains reflect an addition to the officer ranks between 1 October 2016 and 30 September 2017.  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.
