You have to send an email to a mail2army.com mailbox to request a leave.
The normal military scam follows

Welcome!

Could you please post some of "her" emails, and the emails from the phony TS2 company? These emails are often scripted, and when "she" changes her name, the script will likely be reused, so posting those can help prevent others being scammed.

I too received communication trying this scam out. Luckily I googled the email address of @mail2army.com and came across this posting. The person called himself Sgt. Michael Brown and said I should send the email to one of his colonels and request his leave. Being ex-Army, I was aware that this is not the normal way leave is requested, and only family emergencies justify a soldier's unexpected leave.

However, during the course of conversation I could detect little abnormalities in the conversation. Like he would refuse to give details when asked a question. Such as when I asked how many soldiers were in his unit he replied "there are many soldiers here". He also was unfamiliar with certain American customs and slang. And he would ask the same questions repeatedly on things such as how many children do you have and other such questions. These details alerted me that something was not quite right. And I will also say, no matter how lovesick you are, a red flag should surely go off if someone claims they are in love with you after only 2 chats!

Come on folks...these guys are not that smart. If you have the slightest notion that something is not right, don't send money!

I believe there is another man calling himself Mark Bill who said he was taking a trip to Nigeria. I am waiting on this guy to tell me he lost his passport and needs money to come home! Just another scam!

You have no idea how much this post helped me. I was also contacted by this woman claiming to be working with the british army in Afghanistan. She claimed to be a doctor. I realised nearly straight away but decided to go along with it to see how it plays out. Sadly I've been a victim of scam before so I was quite weary to begin with.

First he or she would not give and specifics and English sounded more East Asian than British. She claimed to live in East Ham.

At first she said she wanted to send me a present through a friend who was coming down. I told her that surprises should wait until we meet in person. I think it was some sort of scheem to extract money though I was too scared to get in too deep there.

At this point she left the conversation.

Next day she re appears and tells me what needs some help. She had apparently asked a friend to buy her some stuff and he was short by £100, and wanted me to lend it to her. She said he was going to buy her an ipad so she could keep in touch with me. This was obviously BS, and I was tempted to follow it through to see where it goes, but then decided against it. I told her that I'd been a victim of scams in the past and do not lend money to people I don't know in real life, and that she should understand it if she really liked me. she said ok and left the conversation.

Now if I had any confidence in the law enforcement agencies I would follow it up and would like nothing better than to lock these scammers behind bars. But they often operate from overseas and as my last experience proves the UK police can't touch them and their own law enforcement agencies are corrupt and inefficient.

Incidentally if somebody comes accross this please stay away from a Philipino woman called Erna Ruth May Mendoza, who also likes to call herself Czarina.
