Federal Reports

The U.S. Postal Service joined the government-wide commercial fleet card program in January 2000 under the General Services Administration SmartPay Program. U.S. Bank is the contractor for the program, and Voyager Fleet Systems, Inc. operates as the card company. The Postal Service issues about 300,000 cards nationwide which can be used at more than 230,000 retail merchant locations in the U.S. The Voyager card is used to pay for commercial fuel and oil, maintenance, repair, towing, shuttling, servicing, washing, and polishing of Postal Service-owned vehicles. It is accepted by most major oil companies. Our objective was to determine whether the Postal Service was properly credited for disputed Voyager card transactions.

The OIG investigated allegations that a National Park Service (NPS) employee falsified his Department of Defense Form 214 (DD Form 214), Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, and used the forged document to obtain employment with the Federal Government. The anonymous complainant also alleged that the employee offered to falsify another individual’s DD Form 214, to help that person obtain Federal Government employment.We found no evidence that the employee falsified his official DD Form 214, nor did we find evidence that he assisted anyone else in altering their military records. The employee’s discharge certificate on file with the Federal Government matched the certificate we obtained from his official military records.
