Is your brother also having a break? Once I met a U.S. military personnel who was stationed at Yongsan on a UA flight from NRT to ICN. (I don't know the camp's name.) and he just had a week of a break in Tokyo. He said that the government was paying for his break in full. He told me that the government paid USD500 for RT between ICN and NRT which was overpaid IMHO.
I work at a public, year-round school, and on my schedule I work for 4 months, then I am off for 2 months. It's a great schedule for traveling, but probably not so good for my students.
My brother took a two weeks leave, but the government is definitely not paying for his break! Instead I used NW miles to get his ticket (actually two different tickets: ICN-NRT-HKG and back in WBC.)
