I'm curious because you said Command Team instead of the CO. <br /><br />Terminal Leave is still ultimately a leave request and isn't a given. You still have to walk the paperwork. I would recommend just speaking to your leadership and figure out where the point of friction is. Sometimes it can be fixed with a 5 minute conversation.Response by SSgt Christophe Murphy made Jan 14 at 2022 11:08 AM2022-01-14T11:08:26-05:002022-01-14T11:08:26-05:00Lt Col Jim Coe7474756<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Commanders approve leave, so, yes, you can be denied leave. Normally, the Commander will need a good reason from your supervisor to deny terminal leave. You can talk to your supervisor, First Sergeant, and Commander (in that order) about a denial.Response by Lt Col Jim Coe made Jan 14 at 2022 12:17 PM2022-01-14T12:17:27-05:002022-01-14T12:17:27-05:00SFC Private RallyPoint Member7474773<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You could use the search function and find that same question asked about a dozen times.<br /><br />Yes.

Get a bucket of water, roll up your sleeve, stick your arm into the water and pull it out. It a "hole" is in the water, they are correct, you are to valuable. The person who replaces you may do the job you are now doing better, worse or slower than you. With practice the replacement will meet the standards. Enjoy your leave.Response by SMSgt Bob Wilson made Jan 15 at 2022 2:58 PM2022-01-15T14:58:53-05:002022-01-15T14:58:53-05:002022-01-14T11:01:43-05:00
