Here in Oklahoma, I'm not sure how things will translate over to you, but here, I let them know when I get my drill schedule for the year. They give me the day prior to drill off to allow for sleep and etc, as well as drill it self. Just tell your employer that you would like the day before drill off. I had an employer that had issues with it, but I told his boss and it was straightened out. You should be able to do the same.

USERRA is federal law so any state law pertaining to your situation is null. Also, your employer CANNOT force you to use any personal time, sick days, etc nor subject you to face penalties (a point system) for missing days for military service.
