I returned in January from a combination of mil leave and two furloughs. Total time out just under 7 years. I was very close to the cumulative military leave limit, even with a combat zone waiver for part of my time. I had quite a bit of mil leave on my records at NWA before I went out on long term mil as well. I had all my documentation lined up and was ready for questions, but never got any. The key, in my opinion, was maintaining contact with the company and letting them know each step along the way when my orders changed for whatever reason. I also made sure I kept a copy of all e-mails regarding my mil leave status.
