I served as trial counsel and claims judge advocate for the 1 st BDE, 3 rd Infantry Division (Mechanized) at Schweinfurt, Germany, command judge advocate for the US Army Depot Systems Command, as a trial attorney for the Army s Contract Appeals Division where I litigated GAO and ASBCA disputes (including Government claims of defective cost or pricing) on behalf of the US Army, and as the Staff Judge Advocate for Fort Indiantown Gap, PA.

While in Afghanistan, I authored with Commander, DCMA-Afghanistan and the Senior Contracting Official- Afghanistan, the Afghan Government s procurement regulation (the equivalent of the US Federal Acquisition Regulation). My final assignment before retirement entailed correcting a $1 Billion Anti- Deficiency Act violation and involved working closely with the Army Budget Office to correct funding obligations on hundreds of contracts.

To date, we never conceded defective pricing and have not had to incur costs in adjusting contract values as a result of post award audits. I continue to work closely with our Compliance community, DCMA-York and our DACO in effecting timely contract closeouts, the de-obligation of unliquidated contract obligations and in improving our Business Systems.
