Subject: Federally Chartered Corporation: Review of the Financial Statement
        Audit Report for the Military Chaplains Association of the United States
        of America for 1997


Dear Mr. Chairman:

As requested, we reviewed the audit report covering the financial statements of the Military
Chaplains Association of the United States of America, a federally chartered corporation, for
the year ended December 31, 1997. The corporation was established to assist chaplains in the
performance of the duties, promote the effectiveness of the Military Chaplaincy and
encourage individuals to enter the chaplaincy.

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.

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 inquiries to corporation officials or the auditor as we deemed
necessary. We did not review the auditor's working papers. Our review disclosed no
reportable instances of noncompliance.
