- while on mil leave @ FDX, will my time credited (ie, the minimum 1 year to apply as an internal) still be building, or will I have to come off of orders to complete that time?

- in general, is this a good plan? I know I'm protected by USERRA, but no telling what a p.o.'ed manager can do to hurt my chances.
They won't hire you unless you're willing to work. They have lots of people that need work the last thing they're going to do is accommodate you on mil leave. Don't tell them about the mil thing cuz they won't hire you. I was a handler.

It's hard to go internal because so many things have to go right and you have to have perfect timing not to mention fedex express has to be hiring pilots. Good luck
