*    Because of changes in occupational coding procedures in FY 1998, data may not be comparable with figures in previous years' Population Representation reports.
**  Although women do not serve in infantry positions, they do serve in other positions, such as gun crews, air crews, and seamanship specialties, included in the "infantry"
area.
***Non-occupational includes patients, students, those with unassigned duties, and unknowns.
