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.)

I don't understand it. HOW COME THEY ARE NOT PAYING FOR HIM??? The man that I named above said that the government afford the expense of trip for military personnel. He told me that they don't pay for Business Class, but at least they pay for Economy Class. Anyhow, it's still good that you have enough miles to give him.
BTW, are you paid when you are off for two months? IMO, that's a great schedule. I wonder if there is any job that has more vacations or breaks than teachers. Many people think that teachers have longer break or vacation than others.
I live near LGB too.
