Dear Sir:

     We are pleased  to report that our audit of travel and temporary
lodging allowance  (TLA) vouchers paid by the accounting and finance
officer  (AFO) at your installation for the period May 1 through 31,
1973, disclosed no errors.  We  did note, however, that on 18 of the
171 travel vouchers  in our sample, the sign out/in times and dates
were not shown as a part  of the travel itinerary, as required by
paragraph 40111f(1) of Air Force Manual  (AFM) 177-103 and paragraph
11-3n, Volume III of AFM  177-373.  Seventeen of the vouchers did
not show sign out and  sign in times and dates on the itineraries, and
one voucher did not  show a sign in time and date.  Nine of the seven-
teen vouchers carried  the notation member failed to sign out or in.
In those instances where  the sign out/in times and dates are missing
from the itinerary,  the cited regulation requires that the voucher be
supported by an acceptable  explanation.

     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' centralized
leave accounts.  This  is in addition to the Interim Leave System exam-
ination, the results  of which were reported to you by our letter of
May 1,  1973.

     Of  the 171 travel vouchers in our sample, 48 vouchers showed
delay en route.   Our examination of these 48 vouchers (which involved
54 periods  of leave) showed that the periods of leave on 50 of the
cases were  transmitted with the correct number of days.  The attachment
lists  travel vouchers where leave was not charged or where leave was
incorrectly computed.   In the majority of the cases, the periods of
leave were entered  on the Daily Transaction Listing on a timely basis
after payment was  made for the travel.
