Table notes/caveats:

  1. The figures are for the Trade Trained Regular Army only and therefore exclude Gurkhas, Full Time Reserve Service, Mobilised Reserves, Army Reserve and all other Reserves, but includes those personnel that have transferred from GURTAM to UKTAP.

  1. The figures only include personnel with a parent Arm / Service of Infantry serving at Regimental Duty within the specified Battalions. All other Infantry personnel who are not serving within a Foot Guard Battalion have been excluded from these figures. Figures also exclude any attached Arms serving with the Battalion.

  1. Figures exclude service personnel on the resilience margin.

  1. Senior Non-Commissioned Officers include all personnel with a Paid Rank of Staff Sergeant and Sergeant. Junior Non-Commissioned Officers include all personnel with a Paid Rank of Corporal and Lance Corporal.

  1. Figures have been rounded to 10 for presentational purposes; numbers ending in "5" have been rounded to the nearest multiple of 20 to prevent systematic bias.

  1. Totals and sub-totals have been rounded separately and so may not appear to be the sum of their parts.
