For example, my daughter's PIR is Friday 9 Nov. Monday the 12th is the observed federal holiday for Veterans Day. Is she still likely to fly out on the 10th, or might the federal holiday mean a different fly date for her? And if so, might she have liberty that Saturday?

Knowing the navy and how they try to find flights they can fill up with several new sailors...that one might not be very full...my guess would be they very well could ship her then.
