    Dear Sir:

         Our audit of  travel and temporary lodging allowance (TLA) vouchers
    paid by the accounting and  finance officer (AFO) at Goose Air Base for
    the period October  1 through 31, 1973, disclosed the following:

                                        Travel               TLA
                                        vouchers           vouchers

    Total documents                        167                  18
    Statistical sample                      84                  18
      audited
    Number of errors                         4                  18
    Amount of errors                    $46.55             $854.83
    Error rate                             4.8               100.0
    Air Force-wide                         1.3                 8.5
      error rate
    Estimated errors                         8                --
    Estimated amount                    $90.00                --

         Our review  included all travel vouchers (3) of $500 or more and
    a statistical sample  (81) of the remaining travel vouchers in the
    account, plus all  of the TLA payments.

         All of  the travel voucher errors involved payments of per diem
    allowances  to civilian employees and all of these occurred on the
    vouchers in amounts  of less than $500.  Attachment I lists the travel
    and TLA vouchers  on which the monetary errors were found, with
    explanations.

         Our prior  letter dated January 31, 1972, covering the audit of
    documents for  the period July 1, 1970 through March 31, 1971, reported
    one error for  travel vouchers (error rate 0.4) and two errors for TLA
    vouchers  (error rate 9.5).
