Army Retaliation - Phil Howard 2015

As I've stated previously I disapproved (twice) the Black Hawk (HU-60 & MH-60) and Apache (AH-64) T700-701D engine Full-Authority Digital Electronic Control (FADEC) control software that I have been overseeing for 9 years which Phil Howard ordered me to approve.  When I did not approve it I was called into his office with him announcing he no longer had work for me and I would find myself on the sidewalk (See previous postings).  I was stripped of all work for over a year.  About a year later I met with Phil for my yearly performance appraisal having submitted my accomplishments as required. Phil stated where are your accomplishments to which I stated I was not given any work.  Phil replied "That's your problem."  You may be questioning the reality of the government let someone sit idle for over a year. This posting is to prove this fact.  Posted below is my Performance Objectives Worksheet I submitted.  This document was officially signed by both William (Bill) Craig and Phillip Howard.  As you can observe on the Employee Accomplishment Page (Page 3 below) it states, "It is important to note that I was not assigned any (i.e. zero) technical or engineering task during this entire assessment period."  Stating explicitly that I was not assigned any work for the last years which is officially signed by both William Craig and Phil Howard.  You might ask about the accomplishments provided, as did Phil, and my explanation was these are things I normally did listed but caveat with "as applicable" because although I was not given work I would have accomplished the tasks if I have been therefore I labeled them "as applicable."  Applicable if proved the work to do but I was not given any work to do by Phil.  Also as proof  I had all my charges which where to overhead funding which would have normally been to the Black Hawk funding if I would have been given work.  So both my supervisor and the Director of the organization signed off on the statement I had not been given work for the course of a year.  As you can see on the Performance Appraisal sheet (page 4 below) my rating was a B.  I had received an A the year before, as well as all my years perilously working for the Army.  

Based on this reduction due to "fact" I could not show any accomplishments for the year, how could since I was never given work, I filed a grievance against Phil Howard.  An important point, one which I raised during my grievance to which Bill Craig and Phil Howard maintained I was given work was three days after I filed my grievance based on the fact I was not given work Phil Howard sent me a email assigning me to work the CH-47 Chinook helicopter CAAS software.  IF I actually had work as Phil Howard and Bill Craig maintained why did they have to assign me to the Chinook program?   They wouldn't of course.  I discovered what a farce the grievance process actually was.  The Army ruled that I was provided work.  This decision was made by Darrell Quarles Director AMRDEC S3I Directorate.  Now IF the process had been followed as delineated by Agreement Between the Army and the Union stated in Article 47 Grievance and Arbitration Procedure I would then been allowed to proceed to Arbitration and I would have been allow to present my case to a neutral arbitrator.  This did not occur because I was not allowed to go to Arbitration by the Army or the Union.  It is easy to figure out why Army did not allow it.  The Union did not allow it because I was not a member of the Union.  A very nice and helpful young lady name Dorthea Yarbrough was assigned as my Union representative to assist me with my grievance.  She later informed me that Abner Merriweather president of AFGE Local 1858 explicitly stated to her that I would not be allowed to go to arbitration because I was not a member of the Union.  Over time it became very clear that the Union was there to only represent Union members although the Union is suppose to represent all employees.  I was not a paying member of the Union therefore I would be allowed to go to arbitration.  The Union having no more integrity that the Army and only there for a buck.  This was not the last time this happen but occurred again the next year when I file once again against Phil Howard despot actions which continued to occur up to the point he finally succeeded in removing me from the government through Susan Davis. My Performance Appraisal is provided below documenting the fact that I was not provided any technical work during that appraisal period signed by both Phil Howard and Bill Craig.  Phil Howard stripped me of work for disapproving the FADEC software for none compliance with DO-178B which was specified in the contract with General Electric.  I never found any integrity in either the Army or the Union during my years of service but quite the opposite.  I refused to sign off on the final appraisal.  Both individuals Phil Howard and Bill Craig blatantly lied in meetings claiming I was provided work.  Neither with any morals or ethics which permeates throughout Army management.  Susan Davis is another example of an Army manager who also has absolutely no qualms about lying and is without a shred of ethics which I will provide farther evidence of in the future postings.  I will also be providing more examples of the lack of Army integrity involving current FOIA requests submitted to the Army.
