If you are AD, check with your S2. You could also request leave and see what happens.

S-2 would be your first stop, one more thing, you are born in Cuba just like me, the Cuban government still do not recognize Cuban born living in U.S., as U.S. Citizens, what I mean is that the government of Cuba have all of jurisdiction over you even if you are naturalized in the United States, if I was you I will wait till they recognized your U.S. Citizenship or until the U.S. Government authorities the travel for military members.

Sounds Interesting. I was in London towards the end of the Cold War and some of my coworkers actually went to Russia. If you get too, You're going to have to provide us with a Travel Guide that is after you get debriefed by S-2 upon your return.
