Dear Senator Buckley:

     As requested we are returning the correspond-
ence from Mr. George C. Walsh, Jr., concerning an
article from the Wall Street Journal. The report
cited in the article is our classified report to the
Congress on theVneed for improvement in readiness of
Strategic Army Forces, Department of the Army
B-l46896, May 8, 1972). The information in the ar-
ticle was taken from the unclassified digest of the
report. Enclosed for your information is a copy of
this digest.

     Our report did not attribute any of the main-
tenance--px-oblems on tanks to the manufacturer.
Rather, the difficulties were due primarily to per-
sonn(eL.prbohl.em,s,, funding restrictions, and spare-
parts support.

     We trust this information will be useful to you.

                          Sincerely yours,




                          Comptroller General
                          of the United States

Enclosures


The Honorable James L. Buckley
United States Senate
