GENERAL NOTES:

1. In some instances, the Military Departments report personnel by parent installation rather than their operating location. Such variations tend to occur in metropolitan areas where military activities are scattered among many political jurisdictions. In addition, personnel on temporary duty (TDY) on September 30, 2004, may be reported at their assigned locations.

2. Military personnel in each department include a number of personnel in a transient status. These personnel are in a travel, proceed, leave en route, or temporary duty status while on permanent change of station (PCS) orders. The 43,232 servicemembers reported in this "undistributed" category are not included in the report.

3. Excluded from the direct hire civilian personnel in this publication are a small number of Department of Defense civilians formerly exempt from Office of Management and Budget (OMB) ceiling control, such as Summer Aids, Stay-in-School Program employees, and participants in the Cooperative Education Program. As of September 30, 2004, the Department of Defense employed 3,186 direct hire civilian employees in these categories of employment.

4. Department of the Army direct hire civilian personnel include employees involved in civil functions in the United States. This consisted of 23,939 employees of the Army Corps of Engineers and 96 Army cemeterial employees. Also included in this report is one civil function employee of the Air Force.

5. Department of the Navy military personnel include those in the Military Services of the Navy and Marine Corps. The Navy Department military totals consist of shore-based personnel and temporary shore-based personnel and excludes those personnel who are in an afloat duty status (138,172).

6. Further information on DoD personnel can be found in the WHS/ITMD annual publications Atlas/Data Abstract for the United States and Selected Areas (L03) and Selected Manpower Statistics (M01), and the quarterly publication Worldwide Manpower Distribution by Geographical Area (M05).
