	Lission  +  650982 Thu, 22 Jan 09 04:00 AM Hi Clive  Clive “Please kindly grant him leave for these three days” I think you missed out commenting on the above words in bold. I think 'Please' and 'kindly' cannot be used together. 'Please' alone is enough. Lission Joined on Fri, Nov 7 2008 Junior Member 70

	Clive  +  651042 Thu, 22 Jan 09 04:58 AM Hi, Thanks for the comment. I left it as is because it seems that in many cultures a level of politeness is normal which seems excessive to me here in Canada. A lot of these leave letters we get asked about would not even be written in Canada, or would be written in a very different way.
