Went into labor about 2hours ago (it's now 10a here) husband left work to come to the hospital, his sargent took his leave packet from him as we were walking out the door.. Are they going to start the 10 days free leave now even tho I might have up to two days of labor before we get our daughter...

It begins on the date that's listed on the leave form he signs. With both of ours, my husband called his SFC once we were in the hospital and was told not to worry about coming in. He didn't go back on post to officially go on leave until after we were home from the hospital.

Leave starts when they sign the paperwork so could be now or could be later. Also it is not 10 days guaranteed, it is up to 10 days of paternity leave and the command can call him back at anytime. This means he might get 10 days or he might get less or he might still get called in for a few hours no telling what they will do.

If he left work before his shift was up then he needs to be on leave!
