If you have available vacation days why not IVD in the 1st place, exact same rules as the APD and processed before the APD making it a higher priority drop.
I don't have any PB days so that's not an option.
I'm hesitant to utilize an IVD on the first shot because I suspect that I might get a Green Slip inbetween now and then. If I do, then I don't need the pay preservation that an IVD provides....I would simply need something to get me the day off (which is an APD as the coverage is slightly below the min required for reserves on that particular day).
Therefore, I'd like to get the reserve day dropped as an APD and then subsequently convert it to an IVD if I don't end up getting a GS in the meantime.
