I would much rather address a mil Leave issue with my ALPA rep than file a federal complaint under the USERRA act. There are guys in unrepresented professions losing jobs over mil leave because Uncle Sam doesn't want to spend the money to pursue a case, or the case takes so long to settle that it doesn't help the employee get reemployed before he has no choice but to get a new job to pay the bills.
