In JTR Joint Travel Regulations, Chapter 4 covers overseas travel and cost of living allowances, not leave types, so most leave types are covered in other chapters, but Chapter 4 does not cover ordinary annual leave and sick leave as travel entitlements. JTR is organized with Chapter 1 general, Chapter 2 TDY travel, Chapter 3 PCS travel, Chapter 4 overseas and OCONUS travel, including overseas COLA, housing allowance, and dependent education. Chapter 4 focuses on overseas station allowances, not leave. Types of leave not covered in Chapter 4 include annual leave, sick leave, convalescent leave, and emergency leave, which are covered under personnel regulations, not travel regulations. However, JTR does address leave taken while on TDY in Chapter 2, stating per diem not payable during leave days. Chapter 4 does cover Rest and Recuperation R&R leave travel and Environmental and Morale Leave EML for overseas personnel, which are special leave types for OCONUS. So ordinary annual and sick leave are not covered in Chapter 4, as Chapter 4 is about overseas allowances. Also, parental leave and court leave are not covered in Chapter 4. So answer is annual leave, sick leave, and other standard chargeable leave types are not covered in Chapter 4, which covers overseas travel allowances and special R&R and EML leave travel, not regular leave, which is governed by military personnel regulations like DoD Instruction 1327.6.
