                The Honorable Henry J. Hyde
                Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary
                House of Representatives
                Subject: Federally Chartered Corporation: Review of the Financial Statement
                          Audit Report for the Fleet Reserve Association for Fiscal Year 1997

                Dear Mr. Chairman:

                As requested, we reviewed the audit report covering the financial statements of
                the Fleet Reserve Association, a federally chartered corporation, for the year
                ended September 30, 1997. The corporation's purpose is to assist its members
                and their families who may be in urgent need of assistance; to assist in
                recruiting for the United States Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard; and to
                keep its members informed on United States Naval, Marine Corps, and Coast
                Guard matters.

                Federally chartered corporations are required under 36 U.S.C. 1102-1103 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
                0     submit the auditor's report and the corporation's financial statements to
                      the Congress not later than 6 months following the close of the
                      corporation's fiscal year.

                The objective of our review was to determine whether the audit report
                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, reviewed the auditor's report,
                and made any inquiries to corporation officials or the auditors as deemed
                necessary. We did not review the auditor's working papers. During our review,
                nothing came to our attention that would cause us to believe that the financial
                reporting requirements of the law have not been met.


                                                GAO/AIMD-98-198R Fleet Reserve Association
