     We have reviee   selected ft  deat trasacttions In
the ace   ts at the  .S.S. EPPERSON for the 6 moths mA4-
ed  ecember 3., 1971   We feurA sval   crew meabers wore
over or underpaid and some leave balces  were teasturate.
Seth resulted tea  errors In travel venhers and military
pay records.  The errors are somtrised In the appendix.
     out aiss ladicate a partledar need for more pro-
ficency  In preparing and pia g travel clams   -o over
half of the miitary  travel voacker we reviewed had one
or sov  errors, mseat iavolving per dies. The most comon
travel voucher errors were
     ** tcorract  deductions for  als and quarters,
     -  wrong per dian rates, ead
     ** erroneous teepatatitas.
     The most significant pay error vat a falters to post
a payoll  payment of $11    This and other pay errors idea-
tiftid are those usually attributed to disbursing offices --
incorrect  eepeatas, exndsteas, rates of pay, and leave

     We were unable to pinpoint responsibility or determine
causes of the errors sitce our review wasIt ated to records
at the Nw   Pivance Cater,  Cleveland. Hewer,   wo believe
travel related wrort  could be sabstantially reduced it
disbursing persoanel would becom  re  familiar with the
Joiat Travel  aulaties   and be more careful when performing
reate   tasks.  The other errors appear to be the type that
can be prevented with adequate verificaetion and supervisory
reVIew,
