Subject: Federally Chartered Corporation: Review of the Financial Statement
          Audit Report for the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War.
          Incomorated, for Fiscal Year 1997

Dear Mr. Chairman:

As requested, we reviewed the audit report covering the financial statements of
the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War, Incorporated, a federally chartered
corporation, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997. The purpose of the
corporation is to assist in preserving and making available for research,
documents and records pertaining to the Grand Army of the Republic and its
members.

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
       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 auditor as we 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.
