        Subject: Commemorative Coin Program: Women in Military Service for
                  America Memorial Foundation, Inc.

         Section 303 of Public Law 103-186 required that we perform a one-time audit of
         the use of commemorative coin surcharge proceeds received by the Women in
         Military Service for America Memorial Foundation, Inc. The Foundation,
         incorporated in 1985, constructed the Women in Military Service for America
         Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery to honor women who have served in
         the armed services. Title II of Public Law 103-186, the United States Veterans
         Commemorative Coin Act of 1993, provided that the Foundation use the
         surcharge proceeds from the sale of commemorative coins to create, endow,
         and dedicate the Memorial. The Foundation plans to manage the Memorial,
         including adding names to a registry of women who have served in the military.
         The Foundation also carried out a related project to restore the main gate of
         Arlington National Cemetery, which is adjacent to the Memorial.
