Breakdown in Vietnam petroleum audit signals systemic failure
A nine member Joint Petroleum Technical Assistance Team found a total breakdown in the Pentagon’s Vietnam fuel accounting for 1967. Receipts and reports were ignored or misfilled, leaving millions of dollars in fuels untracked as shipments moved through Vietnam. The report cites incomplete terminal reporting and lack of controls on private contractors, noting the system remains unmanageable. Senator Proxmire urged disclosure of the Viet Nam audit and steps taken since 1967.
