<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have never seen an actual regulation that can force somebody to take leave. Normally units have block leave schedules (including after deployments), and they may not approve leave for you outside of this period, but there are always some who choose not to take leave during that time. They should not be forcing you to take leave.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have this issue currently. There is no regulation stating a commander can or cannot make you take leave. However, you must submit the DA31, if you do not you aren’t on leave.
