*  The Population Representation in the Military Services (POPREP) is based on data from the Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC). Breakouts of accessions 
    by service component and prior service/non-prior service designation will not match reports by individual services because of differences in defining prior service 
    accessions. DMDC uses the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS) to determine prior service, but the services each use their own criteria.
