  1. Non-Hispanic includes individuals who ethnicity is unknown.  All other tables in this report tabulate the Hispanic percentage 
      excluding the unknowns for ethnicity, making the Hispanic percentage 15.8% in 2014.
  2. In FY 2003 there was a change in the way DoD reported race/ethnicity data.  The new race/ethnicity data were only made 
      available for the last three quarters of FY2003.  Thus, the FY 2003 data includes percentages for NPS accessions by  race/ethnic 
      for the last three quarters of FY 2003 only. Since we do not have full year totals, we omit the total number of accessions.
