Subject: Federally Chartered Corporation: Review of the Financial Statement Audit Reports
         for the Retired Enlisted Association, Incorporated. for 1995, 1996, and 1997


Dear Mr. Chairman:

As requested, we reviewed the audit reports covering the financial statements of the Retired
Enlisted Association, Incorporated, a federally chartered corporation, for the years ended
December 31, 1995, 1996, and 1997. The corporation promotes its members professionally
and culturally and helps to improve the relationship between the civilian and military
populace and acts as liaison with the active personnel of the Armed Forces.

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 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, reviewed the
auditors' reports, and made inquiries to corporation officials or the auditors as we deemed
necessary. We did not review the auditors' working papers. Our review disclosed no
reportable instances of noncompliance.
