*  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.
   Rows may not add to totals due to rounding.
