<strong>Notes to table 1:<br> </strong>1. UK Regulars comprise Full time Service personnel,
including Nursing Services, but excluding Full Time Reserve Service (FTRS) personnel,
Gurkhas (which have been included separately in the table), mobilised Reservists,
Military Provost Guard Service (MPGS), Locally Engaged Personnel (LEP), Non Regular

Figures have been rounded to the nearest 10, though numbers ending in a “5” have been
rounded to the nearest multiple of 20 to prevent the systematic bias caused by always
rounding numbers upwards. Additionally, totals and sub-totals are rounded separately
and so may not equal the sums of their rounded parts</p><p>4. UK Regular Forces and
