Space A Travel~Anyone's DH use it to get home from a deployment early?

I know someone whose DH is deployed (to Japan) and he told her there is a chance he could use Space A travel to get home for the birth of their child. He was originally due to come home a week prior to her due date but now with budget stuff going on it's anyone's guess. Since it is supposed to be the end of his deployment, he has told her there is a small chance he could appeal to his superiors to allow him to come home before the due date on Space A travel just to lock in the best possibility of him being there for the birth...... Does this even sound possible? I've never heard of something like this being allowed. I don't want her to get her hopes up for nothing but for her sake I do hope he gets to come home on time one way or another.
