33A-2-14. Eligibility for bonus--National Guard or reserve personnel. National Guard or reserve personnel who put in periods of active duty for training in the federal forces may not be included among the beneficiaries of §§ 33A-2-10 to 33A-2-33, inclusive, unless they were called for further active duty. If they were called for further active duty they are eligible for the bonus for the time so served and for the time spent in active duty for training if that time was within the eligible period fixed in § 33A-2-13. However, the commission may promulgate rules pursuant to chapter 1-26 to specify special circumstances under which service by National Guard or reserve personnel in a training or active duty status may qualify for the bonus if such service involved participation in or direct support of military operations or activities that would qualify for benefits under § 33A-2-13.
