You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.

  • 1990 Goodwill Games
    INSPECTOR GENERAL DEPARTMENT OF DE:FENSE 400 ARMY NAVV DRIVE ARLINGTON, VIRGINIA 22202·2884 REPORT NO. 91-014 November 23, 1990 MEMORANDUM FOR ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF DEFENSE (FORCE MANAGEMENT AND PERSONNEL) DIRECTOR, OFFICE OF ECONOMIC ADJUSTMENT SUBJECT: Report on the Audit of the 1990 Goodwill Games Introduction This is our report on the Audit of the 1990 Goodwill Games. The audit was requested by the Office of Economic Adjustment. The audit objective was to determine whether adequate controls existed over financial operations for the 1990 Goodwill Games and whether the financial operations were conducted in accordance with DoD policy and guidelines. Discussion The audit determined that adequate controls existed over financial operations for the 1990 Goodwill Games and that the financial operations were generally conducted in accordance with DoD policy and guidelines. Funds appropriated for the support of the 1990 Goodwill Games were judiciously managed, and it is likely that of the nearly $20 million appropriated, $8 million will not be spent. We found certain deficiencies that we brought to management's attention during the audit. Suggestions for improvement either had been or were being implemented at the time of this report. Internal Controls The audit disclosed no internal control weaknesses as defined by Public Law 97-255, Office of Management and Budget Circular A-123, and DoD Directive 5010.38. Scope of Audit We evaluated the adequacy and effectiveness of established financial and operating procedures, including the separation of duties for review and approval of DoD support, the qualifications of DoD personnel, and procedures for issuing and controlling the return of materials loaned to the 1990 Goodwill Games and obtaining reimbursement for lost or destroyed i terns.
