[SLA continues to be authorized to Soldiers serving in qualifying Hostile Fire Pay and Imminent Danger Pay locations per AR 600-8-10 and DoD 7000.14–R] Leave accountability is based on a Last-In-First-Out (LIFO) system.

2. IDENTIFICATION BADGE PLACEMENT ON THE ACU. From Army G-1 Uniform Policy: Due to numerous questions from the field, the slide at the following link is provided to clarify policy on the placement and wear of same side badges on the ACU.  Bottom line, if you are wearing two same side badges on the ACU, the badge with higher precedence remains on the side prescribed in DA PAM 670-1, para 22-17 e., the lower precedence badge will move to the opposite side. https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-950052
