Oh we didn’t call that terminal leave, I can’t recall what it was now and I had 54 days saved up and had to show back up on the final day to sign out and get my dd214.
And you had to check in let’s say by 9 am, leave(I went and hung with people from my unit) and then report back to the same weird building with bitchy civilians and sign in by 3pm, stand in line forever and finally sign you’re discharge papers and get your dd214..
So basically it's treated as normal leave, and you have to come in one last day to get your DD214 just before separating? I could be wrong, but I believe we get a digital copy of our DD214 once it's available.
This was awhile ago, I think you could go to any installation that was nearby, I lived three hours from my last duty station so I went there.
