View answerLeave of Absence is taken to mean Special Leave without Pay and Allowances.
I am advised by the Military Authorities that, within the time frame specified, there were two (2) applications from Engineer Corps Officers for special leave without pay and allowances that were not granted. In addition, there are no records maintained of secondments not granted for Officers.
