Some of the numbers in this report surprised me. I expected to see that the Marines commissioned the fewest ROTC officers, but always thought the Air Force would have been the second smallest. It seems that it is actually the 2nd largest in producing ROTC officers (if you believe CBS ).

U.S. Army In 2006 the number went up to 4,500. Next spring the number will be 5,100 and by 2011 5,350
Air Force ROTC producing about about 1,850 to 1,900 second lieutenants a year (over twice as many as the Navy?).
The Navy has commissioned about 740 ensigns this year through NROTC (this number probably does not include nurses)
Marine Corps commissioned about 275 second lieutenants commissioned through NROTC,
