Subject: Request for Leave
Dear Colonel Jacob,
I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am Mark, your secretary. I am writing to humbly submit a request for leave during this spring of 1921.
The past few months working under your esteemed leadership have been both challenging and rewarding. However, the continuous demands of the job have taken a toll on my physical and mental well-being. I find myself in need of some time to rest and rejuvenate in order to return to work with greater energy and efficiency.
I have made every effort to complete all the urgent and important tasks assigned to me before submitting this request. I have also ensured that all necessary arrangements have been made to minimize any disruption to the normal workflow during my absence.
I am proposing to take a leave of [X] days, starting from [start date] and returning on [end date]. During this period, I will be available for any urgent matters via [contact details].
I sincerely appreciate your understanding and consideration of my request. I am fully committed to resuming my duties promptly upon my return and contributing even more effectively to our shared goals and responsibilities.
Thank you once again for your kindness and support.
Sincerely,
Mark
