Normally units have block leave schedules (including after deployments), and they may not approve leave for you outside of this period, but there are always some who choose not to take leave during that time. They should not be forcing you to take leave.

There is no regulation stating a commander can or cannot make you take leave. However, you must submit the DA31, if you do not you aren’t on leave.
