Dear Sir:

     We are pleased to report  that our audit of travel, commercial
(other than cost-type contract  payments) and temporary lodging allow-
ance vouchers paid by  the accounting and finance officer (AFO) at
Korat Air Base for the period March  1 through 31, 1973, disclosed
no errors.

     We also examined the  travel vouchers of military members for
accuracy of computation of delay  en route chargeable as leave and
for timeliness of input of  leave information to the members' central-
ized leave accounts.  Of  the 171 travel vouchers in our sample, 25
showed delay en route.

     Our examination of these  25 travel vouchers (which involved 30
periods of leave) showed that  all periods of leave were transmitted
for posting with  the correct number of days.  In the majority of the
cases the leave periods were  entered on a timely basis after payment
was made for the travel.

     The Air Force Accounting  and Finance Center (AFAFC) examines on
a monthly basis, a sample of  the travel vouchers paid by the AFO at
your installation.  For the period  October 1972 through March 1973,
its examination of 47  travel vouchers which involved delay en route
disclosed four periods of  leave not posted in January 1973 and eight
periods of leave incorrectly computed  (one each in October 1972 and
January 1973 and six in December  1972).

     Our prior letter dated November  4, 1971, covering the audit of
vouchers for the period July  1, 1970 through March 31, 1971, reported
eight errors in TLA payments and six  errois in commercial vouchers.
