Is there a regulation that states how far out from PCS/ETS you should continue to work law enforcement?

So the question in all my years in the Army, I have searched and failed to find and also been told there is a regulation that states how far you should work Law Enforcement from your DEROS/PCS/ETS date?

Things must have changed. I never heard of such a thing when I was in from '75 to '96. I had guys work the road right up to two days before they'd ETS, while doing their out-processing part time. They'd finish their last shift, we'd throw 'em a party and their last day would be spent on any last-minute crap before they signed out and left. I signed out on terminal leave on April 12th but didn't retire until May 31st.

SSG, I know for ETS after you complete SFL phase two physical, you are not allowed to conduct LE operations. A few of the NCOs I know who have ETSed were put on admin because their physical essentially said they were good to go and working the road risks starting the whole process over again. Not sure if that is just our unit or Army wide. As for PCS, people have worked LE up until they clear.

Ssg, I had this same question when I was approaching ETS. I did address this with my COC, but we couldn't find anything on it. What the unit did was continue to work me on the desk as I had been as a clerk, up to 90 days prior to ETS. They did the same for a couple other Joe's as well. They worked admin to prevent pending cases. That 90 was enough to leave w/o worries of being recalled.
