# Women’s History Month Spotlight: Yhadira Meilyn Meadows

/ Published March 25, 2019

**My name is:**

Yhadira Meilyn Meadows

**I am:**An Army Sergeant who is currently on orders with DLA Energy Europe and Africa as a Quality Assurance Specialist.

**Describe your job in a sentence:**I test the quality of fuel for contamination and deterioration to ensure the fuel is meeting safety and security standards for the Warfighter.

**How long have you worked at DLA?**I’ve been with DLA Energy for six months. I was nominated for my position and started working for DLA in August 2018. I have been serving in the Army for eight years as a lab petroleum specialist.  

**What is your favorite thing about working for DLA?**My favorite thing about working with DLA is that I am part of an organization that supports the military services, the Warfighter and other federal agencies, not to mention all the great people I meet and get to work with.

**What are your best memories of working here?**One of my best, and most recent, memory was when Air Force Brig. Gen. Albert Miller came to visit the DLA Petroleum Lab in Kaiserslautern to see our capabilities and run a few tests last November. It was nice to have leadership see our mission up close because not everyone understands our day-to-day duties. It was inspiring for my team to host the commander in the lab environment and let him experience first-hand scenario tests and get an equipment overview.

**How do you make a difference?**I make a difference by supporting my lab team. Integrating myself with the team and assisting with the fuel testing workload allows me to be an active participant. Another mark of great leadership is empowering the team with professional training opportunities.

**How do you resolve conflict in the workplace and at home?**I resolve conflict in the workplace and at home with positive communication. Communication is key to working out differences and misunderstandings. I am a true believer in talking things out.
# National Women’s History Month: Lillie Mae Brown, champion for women’s and minority rights at DSCR

/ Published March 13, 2019
RICHMOND, VA, 
In 1974, Richard Nixon became the first United States president forced to resign from office, Muhammad Ali regained his heavyweight boxing title, knocking out George Foreman in the eighth round in what was dubbed the Rumble in the Jungle, a 26-year old author named Stephen King, published his debut novel “Carrie,” the Sears Tower in Chicago, Illinois, became the world’s tallest building and Lillie Mae Brown, a systems analyst at what was then named Defense General Supply Center in Richmond, Virginia, was breaking down gender and racial barriers.

In May of that year, Brown filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Office alleging that the installation discriminated against her on the basis of gender, age and race. With her allegation, others emerged with their own testimonies and on Aug. 26, 1975, a class action lawsuit was put into motion. Two years later, on Sept. 19, 1977, a court issued a decree paving the way for great advancements in equality for Defense Supply Center Richmond employees.

The changes were significant. By 1986, nine years after the decree, minority representation in general schedule (GS) grades 11 to 14 rose from five percent to 20 percent and female representation went from 19 percent to 40 percent. There were still no minorities at the GS-15 level, but representation went from zero to 12 percent in GS-14 positions. Female representation at the GS-14 level also went from zero to 24 percent and from 17 percent to 25 percent for GS-15.

Today, women represent a little more than 43 percent of the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation workforce with close to 21 percent being African-American. 

Brown also made significant accomplishments in her technical field. She developed standard bar~~-~~code technology for the Department of Defense that improved receipt processing and stock-location accuracy in depot receiving and storage operations. She also helped create a technology laboratory that tested new bar~~-~~code labels and radio-frequency identification tags.

Brown died in 2006. She was posthumously inducted into the DLA Aviation Hall of Fame in 2011 and the DLA Hall of Fame in 2018.

According to DLA Aviation Hall of Fame records, “Brown was not just a true leader, but an icon in Bellwood history.” ~~~~

# Elder Care Resource Fair at DSCC

/ Published Aug. 30, 2019
COLUMBUS, Ohio, 
Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime’s People and Culture organization and the Wellness Council hosted an Elder Care Resource Fair where associates found resources on planning and caring for the elderly. 

More than a dozen county, state and federal resources along with a couple of nonprofit organizations were on site at Defense Supply Center Columbus Aug. 20 sharing planning and resource information with DSCC associates.  The following organizations were present: Central Ohio Area Agency on Aging, Ohio Attorney General’s Elder Justice Unit, Ohio Department of Aging’s Communications and Government Outreach, Franklin County Job and Family Services’ Adult Protective Services, Franklin County’s Caregiver Support Senior Options, Social Security, Long-term Care Ombudsman for Central Ohio, Ohio Department of Insurance’s Ohio Senior Health Insurance Information Program, BBB Serving Central Ohio, Ohio Council for Cognitive Health, VA Medical Center, Chaplain Liaison Program, Wellness Council and the People and Culture Directorate.

“More than 300 people attended this year’s event in a steady stream for the full two hours,” said DLA Land and Maritime Resiliency Program Manager Brenda Minnema. “I believe it was the best fair we’ve had yet.  I'm glad so many people received the help they need.”

The Elder Care Resource Fair was held in the Building 20 Buckeye and Cardinal Rooms between the hours of 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.  Participants from DLA Land and Maritime, Human Resources, Training, Installation Management, J-6, J-8, Defense Information Systems Agency, Defense Finance and Accounting Service, DOD Human Resources, and other organizations visited with agency representatives to discuss planning, local resources, personal and quality care for older adults.  

The balance that an individual needs between work and other aspects of life is important enough that it is part of the DLA Strategic Plan's People and Culture Plan.  The People and Culture organization in collaboration with the Wellness Council will continue to support work/life balance through future Elder Care resource opportunities.

#### In the Matter of the Claim of Eduard Aminov, Respondent, v New York Black Car Operators Injury Compensation Fund, Inc., et al., Appellants. Workers’ Compensation Board, Respondent.

[768 NYS2d 530]

Crew III, J.

Appeal from a decision of the Workers’ Compensation Board, filed May 23, 2002, which, inter alia, ruled that claimant had sustained an accidental injury in the course of his employment.

Claimant, a black car operator who received assignments from a central dispatch facility that is a member of the New York Black Car Operators Injury Compensation Fund, Inc. (hereinafter the employer; *see*Executive Law art 6-F), sustained certain injuries when the limousine he was operating was struck from behind by another vehicle. The Workers’ Compensation Board held that claimant’s injuries were compensable, having been sustained while claimant was performing “covered services” (Executive Law § 160-cc [4]) in the course of his employment. The employer and the State Insurance Fund now appeal, contending that inasmuch as claimant had not yet received a specific assignment from the dispatcher, he was not in fact performing covered services for the employer at the time of his accident. For the reasons that follow, this argument lacks merit and the Board’s decision is, therefore, affirmed.

Executive Law § 160-cc (4) provides, in relevant part, that “ [c]overed services’ means, with respect to dispatches from or by a central dispatch facility located in the state, all dispatches from such central dispatch facility regardless of where the pick-up or discharge occurs.” The dispute here centers upon the meaning to be afforded the term “dispatch.” The employer argues for a narrow interpretation, asserting that in the absence of an actual work assignment, no dispatch occurred and, hence, claimant was not performing covered services at the time of his accident. While it is true that claimant had not yet received an assignment from the employer, the record nonetheless reflects that claimant had logged onto the employer’s Web site from his limousine’s onboard computer approximately 30 to 40 minutes *1008before the accident, thereby indicating that he was on duty and available to accept assignments. In so doing, claimant also was able to access the employer’s fare location data, which indicated that there was significant fare activity in Manhattan on the day of the accident. Based upon this information, claimant drove into Manhattan in an attempt to increase his chances of getting an assignment and, while en route, sustained the injuries for which he now seeks compensation. Under these circumstances, and considering the underlying purpose of the statute, we agree with the Board that claimant’s actions were sufficient to bring him within the coverage of Executive Law § 160-cc (4). The remaining arguments raised on appeal have been examined and found to be lacking in merit.

Cardona, P.J., Carpinello, Rose and Lahtinen, JJ., concur. Ordered that the decision is affirmed, without costs.

Cedrick Euron Draper, Appellant Pro Se. Terry Gene Kilgore, KILGORE LAW OFFICE, Gate City, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent i n this circuit.2 PER CURIAM:
Cedrick Euron Draper appeals the district court’s order dismissing this civil action
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) (2012). On appeal, we confine our review to the
issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir . R. 34(b). Because Draper ’ s informal
brief does not challenge the basis for the district court’s disposition, Draper has forfeited
appellate review of the court’s order. See Jackson v. Lightsey , 775 F.3d 170, 177 (4th

Cir. 2014) (“The informal brief is an important document; under Fourth Circuit rules, our
review is limited to issues preserved in that brief.”) . Accordingly, we affirm the district
court’s judgment. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately pre sented in the materials before this court and argument
would not aid the decisional process.

# Marine Transporters Visit DLA Distribution Susquehanna, Pennsylvania

/ Published Sept. 30, 2019
NEW CUMBERLAND, Pa., 
Members of the Marine Corps Headquarters Logistics Policy Office and logisticians from Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, visited Defense Logistics Agency Distribution Susquehanna, Pennsylvania, Aug. 28.

“These tours focus on exposing the customer to our procedures while identifying friction points that have previously gone unreported,” said Army Capt. Jason Brown, DDSP transportation operations officer.  “Here the people that write policy and those receiving shipments at Camp Lejeune can work together with the DDSP team to improve our effectiveness when supporting the warfighter.” 

Brown took the group to the outbound area where shipments are staged for Camp Lejeune and discussed how materiel is picked, packaged and placed for shipment.

“Well this has been good for me,” said Oliver Bell, Marine Corps Transportation Policy. “I’m in the Pentagon and I don’t get out too often to kick a box. For me it was interesting to learn about what they do, and in some cases, what they don’t do. It’s a large and impressive operation.”

The group was taken through the facility into major areas such as receiving and shipping and the bin and storage units. The facility is about the size of 33 football fields.

“For me the most important thing is you finally get to see someone face-to-face that you only work with by phone and email,” said Joe Rothrock, Marine Corps Transportation Policy. “We also had some good discussions and we got a few ideas that we are going to research and explore for cost effectiveness; so more may come from our visit.”
* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this

opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited

circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.

No. 04-10561

 

GREGORY D. ROWE,

Plaintiff-Appellant,

versus

KELVIN BLANTON,

Defendant-Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Northern District of Texas

USDC No. 4:04-CV-179-A

Before JONES, BARKSDALE, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Gregory D. Rowe moves this court for leave to proceed in

forma pauperis (“IFP”) in this appeal from the district court's

dismissal of Rowe's discrimination suit brought pursuant to Title

II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”), 42 U.S.C.

§ 12132 et seq. The district court dismissed the suit for failure

to prosecute when Rowe failed to pay the filing fee after the court

determined that Rowe should not be granted IFP status.
2

Rowe’s motion for IFP and appellate brief fail to address

the district court’s rationale for dismissing the suit. Although

this court liberally construes pro se briefs, see Haines v. Kerner,

404 U.S. 519, 520 (1972), even pro se litigants must brief

arguments in order to preserve them. Yohey v. Collins, 985 F.2d

222, 224-25 (5th Cir. 1993). By failing to discuss the district

court’s rationale for dismissing his complaint, Rowe has abandoned

the issue, and it is the same as if he had not appealed the

judgment. See Brinkmann v. Dallas County Deputy Sheriff Abner, 813

F.2d 744, 748 (5th Cir. 1987).

Because Rowe has failed to demonstrate that he will raise

a nonfrivolous issue on appeal, his motion to proceed IFP is

denied. See FED. R. APP. P. 24(a); Carson v. Polley, 689 F.2d 562,

586 (5th Cir. 1982). Rowe’s motion for appointment of counsel is

also denied. The appeal is without merit and is dismissed as

frivolous. See Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 219-20 (5th Cir.

1983); 5TH CIR. R. 42.2.
