Nope.
You’ll just have to wait it out until the doctor is willing to write it.
Not likely. If your job with the DOD requires you to have a release stating your are phyically fit to do your job, then you need one. It is probably in the contract you signed but did not read. You need to find a doctor who will provide proof that you are able to continue working, or else you need to start looking for a new job. You are not talking civilian employer here, they are Military. You can try to fight your case in court, but I guarantee when you show up with your attorney and they have an entire team of attorneys whose job it is to know the ins and outs of the Military, you will know who is going to win.
