Ordinary rest, emergency travel, medical recovery, parental leave, and terminal leave are different kinds. The badge tells you whether the command usually charges the days against accrued leave.

Kinds of leave
Fifteen published categories. Pick the kind that matches the reason, then a length. Each card is the live category fee plus the combined total after duration extra. Combined filings run from $1,000 to $12,000. Payment reserves a leave ID. An administrator still has to review the packet before leave is granted.
Add a length
3 days through 6 months. Days are inclusive. The form fills the end date from the start date. Duration extra sits on top of this category fee.
Pay, then wait
Paying the filing fee sends the packet to the desk. It does not approve leave, cut orders, or post the days to the personnel file.
Read your history
Every filing you submit stays on Leave history with status, payment, dates, and destination until the desk closes it.
