         The Honorable F. James Sensenbrenner, Jr.
         Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary
         House of Representatives
         Subject: Federally Chartered Corporation: Review of the Financial Statement Audit
                   Reports for the Naval Sea Cadet Corps for 2000 and 1999

         Dear Mr. Chairman:

         As requested, we reviewed the audit reports covering the financial statements of the
         Naval Sea Cadet Corps, a federally chartered corporation, for the year ended
         December 31, 2000 and 1999. The corporation's purpose, in cooperation with the
         Department of the Navy, is to encourage and aid American young people to develop
         an interest and skill in basic seamanship and its naval adaptations, and to train them
         in seagoing skills.

         Federally chartered corporations are required under 36 U.S.C. 10101 to

          present the corporation's assets and liabilities and reasonable detail on the
            corporation's income and expenses in annual financial statements,

          obtain an annual financial audit by an independent public accountant, and

          submit the auditors' report and the corporation's financial statements to the
            Congress.

         The objective of our review was to determine whether the audit reports complied
         with the financial reporting requirements of the law. In carrying out our work, we
         reviewed the corporation's financial statements and the accompanying notes,
         performed certain analytical procedures related to information presented in the
         financial statements, and reviewed the auditors' reports. We also held limited
         discussions with the corporation's auditors regarding potential enhancements that
         could be made to the corporation's financial reporting. However, we did not review
         the auditors' working papers, and we are not rendering an audit opinion. Our review
         disclosed no reportable instances of noncompliance with the financial reporting
         requirements of the law.
