| * 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. | |||||||||||||||||
