Anyone have anecdotal evidence as to whether the military is understanding versus rigid when orders are missed due to a flight cancallation?
Family enjoyed a fabulous magical Disney vacation staying at Shades of Green. Arriving at Orlando airport they see their homebound flight cancelled because of a blizzard in New York, let's say Long Island is where they live. DH calls his commander saying he will be late reporting back to duty after R&R (not the coaster). Sure enough the next plane for Kennedy/Laguardia airport the family can get on is a day or so later and DH misses the transport or troopship.
Court martial? Or ship out on the next transport with no unusual action?

Question 2. Same as above but it was discovered that DH could have paid $1,200 for a ticket on another airline that would have returned him punctually but he chose instead to use his original ticket.
