I'm thinking ALPA probably has a Military Affairs volunteer that can help educate the company of their legal obligations when dealing with those of us that need time to attend to our Military duties. ...

I'm not sure about the rest of you, I don't have a problem advising the "General" of the days I intend to take off. It should be easy, seems like simply advising my Fleet Captain or the PAC would fulfill my legal responsibility.

Quite frankly, we should be able to input Military Training Days in VIPS with NO QUESTIONS ASKED!*? If you'd like a copy of my orders, I'm sure I can have an Admiral discuss that with the General.

FYI ... the current Navy VADM (O-8) "Chief of the Naval Reserve" is a FedEx pilot on Military leave. Do we need to have her call and speak to the "General"?
