  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. 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. 
  3. The race groupings used in this table reflect the number of individuals who indicate a single racial identity.  Individuals who self-identify as multiracial are 
      counted in the "two or more" category.
