  Note:  Officer gains reflect an addition to the officer ranks. This addition can reflect a new accession, a movement from another 
      component, or the return of the officer to the same component.  The OSD definition of an officer gain is a transaction in a database 
      that reflects the addition of an SSN that was not in the previous file.
  1. ROTC - Reserve Officer Training Corps
      OCS - Officer Candidate School
      OTS - Officer Training School
  2. 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.
  3. American Indian, Alaska Native
  4. The Army does not report data on the number of active duty officer gains in either the Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander (NHPI) 
      or "Two or more" category. Caution should be used in comparing the racial composition of the Army's officer gains with those 
      of the other Services.
  5. Officer gain data does not contain Unknowns for ethnicity.
      Rows and columns may not add to totals due to rounding.
