      Characteristics of USCG Reserve Enlisted Accessions 
	  
       In FY 2002, the USCG Reserve accessed a total of 1,744 new enlisted 
        personnel up from 1,405 in FY 2001. Of these, 296 (17 percent) had no 
        prior military experience, and 1,448 (83 percent) had served in the Armed 
        Forces previously. 
       Race/Ethnicity and Gender 
      Compared to the overall DoD, USCG Reserve enlisted accessions were more 
        likely to be White, as shown in Table 7.10. In FY 2002, 76 percent of 
        USCG Reserve NPS enlisted accessions were male and 24 percent were female 
        (Appendix E, Table E-23), almost identical 
        to the overall DoD Reserve Components (76 percent male and 24 percent 
        female).
