any chance you can give me an example of what your statements were like on your tera request, seems straight forward in the MARADMIN but I don't want to get it kicked back when I submit it esp cause I know how the Marine Corps can be with correspondenceI hope the same for you.
One other note, don't be afraid to call manpower once you get back your date if you need to. In my case they populated my EAS as a little over 60 days out but I had 70 days of leave saved. My TERA request asked for June and it populated for April. First we called and they agreed to bump it out a month so I can take my leave. After that we realized the retirement type was incorrect and called again. found out my TERA request had not been processed and that date should never have populated so they removed it all together. My requested date actually was approved monday and I go on terminal/ptad on March 27th and officially retire june 30th.
