     352.27 Credit for military service. 

    Any employee given a leave of absence to enter military 
 service who returns to state service upon discharge from 
 military service as provided in section 192.262, may obtain 
 credit for the period of military service.  The employee is not 
 entitled to credit for any voluntary extension of military 
 service at the instance of the employee beyond the initial 
 period of enlistment, induction, or call to active duty, nor to 
 credit for any period of service following a voluntary return to 
 military service.  An employee may obtain credit by paying into 
 the fund an employee contribution based upon the salary received 
 at the date of return from military service.  The amount of this 
 contribution must be the applicable amounts required in section 
 352.04, subdivision 2, plus interest at an annual rate of 8.5 
 percent compounded annually.  The matching employer contribution 
 and additional contribution provided in section 352.04 must be 
 paid by the department employing the employee upon return to 
 state service from funds available to the department at the time 
 and in the manner provided in section 352.04.
