(b)  Any officer or employee to which subdivision (a) applies, while on active duty, shall, with respect to active duty served on or after August 2, 1990, receive from the state, for a period not to exceed 180 calendar days, as part of his or her compensation, both of the following:

(1) The difference between the amount of his or her military pay and allowances and the amount the officer or employee would have received as a state officer or employee, including any merit raises which would otherwise have been granted during the time the individual was on active duty.

(2) All benefits which he or she would have received had he or she not been called to active duty unless the benefits are prohibited or limited by vendor contracts.

(c) Any individual receiving compensation pursuant to subdivision (b) who does not return to state service within 60 days of being released from active duty shall have that compensation treated as a loan payable with interest at the rate earned on the Pooled Money Investment Account. This subdivision shall not apply to compensation received pursuant to Section 395.02.

(d) This section shall not apply to any active duty served voluntarily after the close of the Iraq-Kuwait crisis.
