Note 1 - Figures are for UK Regular Forces (including both trained and untrained personnel), and exclude Gurkhas, Full time Reserve Service personnel and mobilised reservists.

Note 2 – Figures for civilian personnel relate to full-time and part-time, permanent and casual MOD employees and exclude Royal Fleet Auxiliary and locally engaged personnel.

Note 3 - Figures have been rounded to the nearest 10, though numbers ending in “5” have been rounded to the nearest multiple of 20 to prevent systematic bias.

The figures for Service personnel are based on their station location and not their location of residence, as personnel do not necessarily live where they work. Personnel deployed on operations to an area away from their stationed location are shown against their most recent stationed location.
