TOS or a Service ID number, unit in Army, Marines or Ship in the Navy.

As for any leave time that would have been at the lower level of Unit or Command.

Even a DD214 which is a Service Members Record during his/her Service time would not show a minor Pass/Leave.

I served in two different Country Armys and those things were never shown on any of my records.

If they were on active duty on a ship, there are very detailed monthly muster rolls on Ancestry. I was able to track several uncles throughout WWII… but only when they were on active duty. Once they went on leave (either medical or otherwise), I couldn't find them.

Look for gaps in active service to pinpoint when leaves were, and where they last served.
