* The
Population Representation in the Military Services (POPREP) is based on data
from the Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC). Breakouts of FY06 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. |
