  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.
  The data from the Services used to populate the "Gains" portion of this table appear to be inaccurate and are not reliable.  Efforts are underway to improve the quality and accuracy of the data 
      in the future.  The data referencing the education level of the Officer Corps appear to be accurate and are to be considered a reliable data source for this topic.
   Rows and columns may not add to totals due to rounding.
