	1. In FY 2003 there was a change in the way DoD reported race/ethnicity data. The new race/ethnicity data were not available for all
	services until after the first quarter of FY 2003. Therefore, DoD race and ethnicity data only represent the last three
	quarters of FY 2003.
	2. Includes individuals who indicated non-Hispanic ethnicity or did not respond to the ethnicity question.
	3. First quarter totals were added to DoD second through fourth quarter subtotals for cross-year comparision purposes. Percentages
	are for the last three quarters of FY 2003.
	4. Population Representation in the Military Services (POPREP) is based on data from DMDC. Breakouts of accessions by service
	component and prior service (PS)/NPS designation will not match reports by individual services because of differences in defining
	PS accessions.
