Notes:
1. Figures are for UK regular forces.
2. UK regular forces data are sourced from the joint personnel
administration (JPA) system. Location data are based on the stationed
location of the individual as recorded in the ‘assignment location’
field of the JPA system. The figures are based on service personnel’s
stationed location and not their location of residence—where personnel
work is not necessarily where they live. Personnel deployed on operations
to an area away from their stationed location are shown against their
most recent stationed location.
