Ive looked for the regulation for a hour and couldn't find it. If simeone could point me into the right direction, that woild be great.
P.S. my 1st SGT was talking to me this morning, 20180517, that the regulation for paternity leave may have been updated.

DoD Instruction 1327.06
"Paternity Leave. A married member on active duty whose spouse gives birth to a child shall receive 10 days of non-chargeable leave of absence to be used in connection with the birth of the child. This absence should be taken consecutively and within a reasonable amount of time following the birth." (p. 17, Sec. K [Non-Chargeable Leave], Para. 5 [Paternity Leave]) "...Additionally, Service members are authorized to combine a paternity leave of absence with R&R. The actual leave period at the R&R destination shall be charged to the Service member's leave account, except for the 10-day paternity leave of absence." (p. 16, Sec. J [Chargeable Leave], Para. 9 [R&R Leave], Subparagraph (d)) - particularly relevant to deployed soldiers!
