8. Leave.

Leave of attached Officers and other ranks is given from the allotment of the unit to which the soldier is attached. The R.M.O. will obtain his leave from the O.C. of the unit, and then forward this in writing for approval of A.D.M.S., who will supply a substitute to report to O.C. unit, generally the day before the R.M.O. proceeds on leave. Date of proposed departure must be stated. The R.M.O. will thus have an opportunity to instruct his substitute on local conditions, etc.

On returning from leave, the R.M.O. must report at once in person or in writing to the A D M.S., when the substitute will return to his Ambulance
