Dear Sir:

     We are pleased to report that our audit of travel and commercial
(other than cost-type contract payments) vouchers paid by the
accounting and finance officer (AFO) at your installation for the
period April 1 through 30, 1973, disclosed no errors.

     We also examined the travel vouchers of military members for
accuracy of computation of delay en route chargeable as leave and
for timeliness of input of leave information to the members' cen-
tralized leave accounts.  Of the 143 travel vouchers in our sample,
five showed delay en route.  Our examination of these five travel
vouchers showed that all periods of leave were transmitted for
posting with the correct number of dayb.  The elapsed time between
payment of the vouchers and their inclusion in the Daily Transaction
Listings ranged from 7 to 26 days.  Since the effectiveness of the
JUMPS leave accounting depends upon timely input of leave information,
action should be taken to improve timeliness.

     The Administrative Examination Branch, Quality Assurance Division,
Directorate of Settlement and Adjudication examines on a monthly
basis, a sample of the travel vouchers paid by the AFO at your in-
stallation.  For the period November 1972 through April 1973 its
examination of 11 travel vouchers which involved delay en route
disclosed one period of leave not posted and one period of leave
incorrectly computed.

     The findings of our current audit indicate that your controls
for voucher payments are satisfactory.
