Check it out folks. David went through the entire suit and commented on each aspect of the thing. What is key about that, is David’s vast knowledge base about AGNA and AGI and his ability to remember all the cool little details that only add to this stew of information. Bottom line, I wanted to puke after reading this, and I am so sorry that Gordon and company all had to go through what you went through on this contract. (according to Danielle in the PMH show, there are at least thirty plus guys who have reported problems)
Those lewd party pictures are stupid, but the actual details of this contract are the real story here. I highly recommend reading through this if you have the time, and learn what not to do on a contract. –Matt

In a Private Military Herald exclusive David Isenberg, author of Shadow Force: Private Security Contractors in Iraq dissects James Gordon’s suit against ArmorGroup North America.
Read this important and insightful analysis here.
That was a very insightful analysis by Mr. Isenberg but I prefer to reserve judgment until the defense files its answer and motions. As I wrote, it is very interesting that Gordon's lawyers chose to file a lawsuit on employment-based causes of actions rather than fraud, which provide greater monetary awards.
It's always a bad idea to judge the merits of a case after reading the plaintiff's complaint alone. There are two proverbial sides to every story. If only a fraction of Gordon's allegations are true, we as taxpayers should expect and demand aggressive enforcement by the U.S. government.

Absolutely, and I am sure AGNA will give their reasonings. It's just I point to the sheer volume of whistleblowers on this case, and how significant that is. It will be interesting to watch, and I hope it sends a strong message to all parties involved that it behooves them to get future contracts correct, or suffer the consequences.
